Resumo: | Tuberculosis still remain an important Public Health problem. Sometimes it has unexpected forms of presentation and evolution. The autors present three case reports of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis in which there have been difficulties in the diagnosis and treatment. The first case report initially presented with clinical criteria of a Tolosa-Hunt syndrome but the clinical evolution lead to the diagnosis of tuberculous cerebral abcess. The second case is of a pacient with multiple osteolytic lesions of the chest wall ressembling a neoplastic process. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was isolated from the lesions. The last case describes a pacient with pulmonary tuberculosis and epididymo orchitis which had an unfavourable evolution in spite of in vitro sensitivity to the instituted therapy. Tuberculosis must be kept in mind in the diffe rential diagnosis of many unexplained organic lesions. |

Os autores apresentam três casos clínicos de tuberculose com localização extrapulmonar em que se verificaram marcadas dificuldades no diagnóstico e na abordagem terapêutica. O primeiro caso apresentou-se, inicialmente, com critérios clínicos para o síndrome de Tolosa-Hunt, tendo-se concluído, pela evolução, tratar-se de abcesso cerebral tuberculoso. O segundo caso refere-se a um doente com múltiplas lesões oste olíticas da parede torácica, sugerindo processo neoplásico, em que se isolou, das lesões, Myco bacterium tuberculosis. O último caso, de tuber culose pulmonar associada a orquiepididimite, teve uma evolução desfavorável, apesar da sensibilidade in vitro à terapêutica instituída. Conclui-se dever ser realçada a importância de colocar a tuberculose no diagnóstico diferencial de múltiplas lesões orgânicas, tendo em conta a variabilidade de formas de apresentação.Sociedade Portuguesa de Medicina Interna1998-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/2126Internal Medicine; Vol. 5 No. 2 (1998): Abril/ Junho; 86-89Medicina Interna; Vol. 5 N.º 2 (1998): Abril/ Junho; 86-892183-99800872-671Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/2126https://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/2126/1497Silva Nunes, JoséCruz, TeresaBragança, Nunoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-07-01T06:11:48Zoai:oai.revista.spmi.pt:article/2126Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:02:10.942332Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
