Аннотация
CASE REPORT: We report on the clinical course of a 40-year-old patient with an oral manifestation of miliary tuberculosis. In addition to oral mucosa and lung, the colon and ileum were also infested. The oral lesions may resemble malignant tumors and are difficult to diagnose, especially because tuberculosis has become a rare disease in industrialized countries.
DISCUSSION: Oral lesions and concomitant pulmonary complaints can be a sign for existing tuberculosis. Patients with these problems should undergo a chest X-ray and a biopsy from the oral mucosa. In addition, tests should be conducted to determine if mycobacteria are present in the sputum, gastric fluid, and urine and cultures grown. In cases with negative results PCR may detect DNA of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
