Extrapulmonale tuberculose bij drie Nederlandse patiënten

- In three patients, two women aged 71 and 59 years and a man aged 49 who had been living in the Netherlands for a long time and who were admitted because of vague symptoms, extrapulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis were diagnosed: tuberculosis of the lumbar spine with psoas abscess, tuberculous peritonitis and adrenal tuberculosis with Addison's disease in a patient with open pulmonary tuberculosis. All three recovered with tuberculostatic therapy (isoniazid, streptomycin, pyrazinamide and rifampicin).
