pubmed-article:16035715 | pubmed:abstractText | Tuberculosis of the ilium is a rare identity, accounting for less than 1% of all skeletal tuberculosis. We report two such lesions in immunocompetent individuals. Tuberculosis remains an important differential diagnosis when faced with unusual or chronic bony lesions, especially in endemic areas, even in non-immunocompromised individuals. It can involve any site and affect people of any age. | lld:pubmed |
