  • Title: [Morphology of active tuberculous coxitis in adults].
    Author: Ariél' BM, Shatsillo OI.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1996; (3):41-5. PubMed ID: 8754881.
    Abstract:
    16 patients with active tuberculous coxitis (ATC) aged 19-54 were treated surgically. Histological evidence on the removed tissue specimens from 6 patients elucidated a number of features characteristic for active specific inflammation in adults versus children. These are: balanced alternative-exudative and productive changes, absence of advanced necroses, purulent necrotic mass and formation of cavities and abscesses, presence of marked focal and diffuse leukocytic infiltration.
