    Author: Bansal N, Singh G, Dev P, Jain S, Sandhu GS.
    Journal: Indian J Tuberc; 2021 Oct; 68(4):534-539. PubMed ID: 34752326.
    Abstract:
    Acromioclavicular joint tuberculosis is an extremely rare presentation with only 16 cases reported so far and has a relatively high propensity to be misdiagnosed. India being a tuberculosis endemic region accounts for almost 27% of cases worldwide (global index of 2018 was 10 million). With a higher index of suspicion an earlier diagnosis can be made. We report two patients of AC joint tuberculosis, treated with multidrug chemotherapy resulting in a good functional outcome.
