Title: Osteoarticular tuberculosis dactylitis: Four cases. Author: Sbai MA, Benzarti S, Sahli H, Sbei F, Maalla R. Journal: Int J Mycobacteriol; 2015 Sep; 4(3):250-4. PubMed ID: 27649874.

Clinical and therapeutic issues are discussed by the authors in the context of an endemic country.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
