Tuberculous lymphadenitis and adrenalitis with concomitant Addison′s disease: A need to diagnose and treat early Open
Extrapulmonary tuberculosis often proceeds with an indolent course until a substantially infected organ is destroyed. This fact creates a great diagnostic challenge for clinicians. We report a rare case of tuberculous lymphadenitis and bil…
