Tuberculous arthritis in the course of connective tissue disease: Report of 4 cases
We describe 4 female patients with diverse connective tissue diseases who developed tuberculous arthritis concurrently with their underlying disease, in the absence of lung involvement. Throughout, diagnosis was delayed but later confirmed by detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in synovial membr...
