Abstract

Although the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis is declining, the number of extrapulmonary tuberculosis has remained constant. Tuberculous Lymphadenitis accounts for over 50% of total inflammatory lymphadenitis and the most common site is cervical lymph node. We report a case of single cervical tuberculous cold abscess associated with multiloculated and septated tuberculous pleurisy. Intracavitary urokinase instillation via percutaneous catheter is indicated in loculated and septated pleural effusion. And our result was satisfactory without complication.

저자들은 경부에 결핵성의 단일 한성농양을 보인 환자를 경험하였으며, 이 환자에서 결핵성 흉막염 치료시 소방형성으로 인해 흉수액의 배액이 안되었으나 도관을 통한 유로키나제의 주입으로 별다른 합병증없이 만족할만한 결과를 얻었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
