The Importance of a Complete Differential: Case Report of a Tuberculoma in a Patient without Pulmonary InvolvementSethi, Pooja, Treece, Jennifer, Onweni, Chidinma, Pai, Vandana, Rahman, Zia, Singh, Siddharth 28 June 2017 (has links)
Patients with a tuberculoma typically present with pulmonary involvement of tuberculosis and have risk factors for tuberculosis (TB). The risk factors for tuberculosis include bacillary load, proximity to infectious case, immunosuppressive conditions, malnutrition, young age, diabetes mellitus, working in healthcare, recent incarceration, alcohol use, and tobacco use. Although rare, it is possible for a patient to present with a tuberculoma despite the absence of risk factors for tuberculosis other than diabetes and without pulmonary involvement.
