Tuberculous tenosynovitis, a rare condition, can mimic chronic tenosynovitis. This case report details the key features of wrist tuberculosis tenosynovitis in a young woman.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Rheumatology

Background:

  • Tuberculous tenosynovitis is an uncommon manifestation of tuberculosis.
  • It often presents insidiously, mimicking more common causes of tenosynovitis, leading to delayed diagnosis.

Observation:

  • A case of a young woman with tuberculous tenosynovitis of the wrist is presented.
  • The clinical presentation, imaging findings, histological examination, and laboratory results were analyzed.

Findings:

  • Tuberculous tenosynovitis can present with chronic wrist swelling and pain.
  • Characteristic imaging findings may include synovitis and cystic changes.
  • Histopathology typically reveals granulomatous inflammation with caseation.

Implications:

  • Increased awareness of tuberculous tenosynovitis is crucial for early diagnosis and treatment.
  • This condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of chronic tenosynovitis, especially in endemic areas.
  • Prompt diagnosis and appropriate anti-tuberculosis therapy can prevent joint destruction and functional loss.
