pubmed:abstractText |
We report the clinicoradiological features of tuberculosis in the clavicle in 4 patients. The patients' ages ranged from 9 months to 29 years. All patients were managed with antitubercular drug therapy for one year and one underwent surgical debridement and curettage as well. Clinicians should be aware of the varied presentation (pain, non-healing ulcer, abscess, multifocal osteoarticular tuberculosis) of this condition. With the worldwide resurgence of tuberculosis, clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion. The diagnosis of osteoarticular tuberculosis is usually made on clinico-radiological features.
