Abstract

Tuberculous infection of the ischium is a rare condition. It is recommended that antituberculosis chemotherapy is combined with surgical intervention. The patient in this case had an abscess on his right gluteal region and he had undergone an operation without antituberculosis chemotherapy. After eight years, an abscess recurred in the same area and he was treated with surgical resection. Antituberculosis chemotherapy was administered following histopathological confirmation of tuberculosis. At 1 year postoperatively, the patient had no pain and there was no evidence of recurrence.

좌골의 결핵 감염은 드문 질환이며, 수술적 치료와 함께 항결핵제 사용을 병행하는 것이 추천된 다. 본 증례의 환자는 우 둔부의 농양에 대하여 수술적 가료를 받았으나 항결핵제 치료를 받지 않았다. 8년 만에 동일 부위에 농양이 재발하여 수술적 변연 절제술과 함께 병리 조직학적인 결핵 감염을 확진한 후 항결핵제 치료를 병행하였다. 1년 추시 관찰 결과 수술 부위의 통증이나 재발 소견은 보이지 않았다.
