  • Title: [Tuberculous lymphatic glands of the neck (author's transl)].
    Author: van de Kamp W.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1982; 107(5-6):301-9. PubMed ID: 7046289.
    Abstract:
    Nowadays, patients suffering from this disease are mostly elderly people, especially women. Antituberculous chemotherapy is used as therapy of choice. The rate of recurrence is very low. Only in rare cases surgery becomes necessary to remove glands containing caseous (necrotic) tissue. Those operations are difficult due to many crossing vessels and nervs (facial-, Hypoglossal- and Abducens nerv) and should only be performed experienced surgeons.
