Tuberculosis of the Iliac Bone and Acetabulum With Iliopsoas, Obturator Internus, and Obturator Externus Abscesses in an Immunocompetent Indian Female: An Extremely Rare Case.
Curēus 2024 March
Skeletal tuberculosis is a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Due to non-specific clinical features, these cases are often diagnosed very late, ultimately affecting treatment outcomes. The present case is a very rare case of tuberculosis of the iliac bone and acetabulum with iliopsoas, obturator internus, and obturator externus abscesses in an Indian female. She reported pain in her right hip and a limp. It was a difficult diagnosis, especially due to the rare involvement of bones and muscles in the absence of any lesions in the lungs. Nevertheless, the diagnosis was achieved by a detailed radiometric and laboratory workup. She was initiated on antituberculous treatment per her weight for 12 months.
