Abstract

The incidence of multifocal skeletal tuberculosis is very rare and its diagnosis, very difficult because of vague somatic symptoms and non-specific physical and radiologic findings. We report a case of multifocal skeletal tuberculosis mimicking metastasis.

다발골결핵은 매우 드문 병변이다. 다발골결핵은 증상이 모호하고 이학적, 영상의학적 소견이 비특이적이기 때문에 진단이 어렵다. 저자들은 전이암으로 오인되었던 다발골결핵 1예를 보고하고자 한다.
