    Abstract:
    A study was made on a patient with anorexia nervosa complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis treated with intravenous hyperalimentation (IVH). A 24-year-old female was admitted to our hospital because of progressive loss of body weight during medication for pulmonary tuberculosis at another hospital. She was diagnosed as having anorexia nervosa. After the nutritional assessment IVH was performed. As a result of IVH, her body weight increased and her nutritional deprivation, (i.e., low visceral proteins, low branched amino acids, etc.) recovered. Nutritional support was effective upon treating pulmonary tuberculosis.
