An unusual presentation of extrapulmonary tuberculosis in an adolescent: isolated unilateral inguinal lymphadenitis
Öz: İzole inguinal tuberkuloz lenfadenit son derece nadir ve genellikle bilateral gorulen bir durumdur. İştahsızlık, gece terlemesi ve arısız-yumuşak sa inguinal lenf bezi şişlii nedeniyle başvuran 16 yaşındaki erkek hastaya eksizyonel biyopsisi yapıldı. Biyopsi materyalinin Ziehl-Nielsen boyamasında aside dirençli bakteri görülduü ancak kültüründe bakteri üretilemedi. Biyopsi materyalinin histolojik değerlendirmesinde kazeoz nekroz ve epiteloid granulom vardı. Tuberkulin deri testi (Mantoux) 22 mm çapında pozitifti. Bu bulgularla hasta tuberkuloz lenfadenit olarak değerlendirildi. Özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde izole, kronik ve tek taraşı inguinal lenfadenitin ayırıcı teşhisinde tuberkulozda düşünülmelidir.

Bir adelosanda Akciğer dışı tüberkülozun nadir bir görünümü: izole tek taraflı inguinal lenfadenit
Öz: Isolated tuberculous inguinal lymphadenitis is a rare entity and is usually bilateral. A 16–year- old male presented with anorexia, nocturnal sweating and painless soft right inguinal lymph nodes. The patient underwent excision of lymph nodes and a Ziehl-Neelsen stain revealed the presence of acid-fast bacilli, but cultures of the lymph nodes were negative. Histological sections showed the presence of caseous necrosis and epithelioid cell granuloma. He had a positive tuberculin skin test (Mantoux) with 22 mm diameter. The patient was diagnosed as tuberculous lymphadenitis with these findings. Tuberculosis should be included in the differential diagnosis in any case of isolated chronic unilateral inguinal lymphadenitis, especially in developing countries.
