[Slow development of multiorgan tuberculosis in an infant].

Slowly developing tuberculosis in a BCG-vaccinated infant was analysed in a 2-month-old child suffering from cervico-lymphadenitis. It was diagnosed after 8-months period of non-specific treatment as tuberculosis. Further observation revealed severe forms of disease-miliary tuberculosis and meningoencephalitis. Familial contact with tuberculosis was established. The outcome after 9 months of anti-tuberculosis therapy was successful.
