dc.description.abstract | Objective: To review the clinical features of the extrapulmonary tuberculosis in children. Material and Methods: The clinical and epidemiological features of 22 children with extra pulmonary tuberculosis followed in the Children Hospital of Aegean University between 2006 2011 were reviewed. History of contact with tuberculosis patient, clinical manifestations, radiological findings and treatment data were collected. Age, gender, site of involvement, bacteriology, patho logy, laboratory findings, tuberculin test, and immunological studies were recorded. Results: Extra pulmonary tuberculosis constitutes 26,5o of all tuberculosis cases. Male to female ratio was 13/9 and the mean age was 9,35 years. Diagnoses include peripheral lymphadenitis (n-6 cases), milliary (n-3 cases), pleural effusion (n-i case), meningitis (n-2 cases), skeletal (n-2 cases), abdominal (n-2 ca ses) and pericardial (n-i case) tuberculosis. Milliary tuberculosis developed in infants, lymphade nitis and meningitis tuberculosis in preschool children, pleural and skeletal tuberculosis in older children. None of the patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis died. Conclusion: Extrapulmo nary tuberculosis represents an important part of tuberculosis in our study. It is important to think extrapulmonary tuberculosis in patients unresponsive to antibiotics for treatment. Copyright © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri. | en_US |
