抄録

The complication with tuberculosis of the central nervous system (CNS) were studied in 16 patients with miliary tuberculosis who were admitted to our hospital during a period of two years from April, 1997 to March, 1999, and were examined by head MRI. Twelve cases (75%) were diagnosed as having tuberculosis of CNS. Six cases had tuberculosis of CNS which was found during the screening of miliary tuberculosis cases, and all had only cerebral tuberculoma. Meningeal irritative symptoms led to the discovery of tuberculosis of CNS in the remaining six cases, in which cerebral tuberculoma was complicated with tuberculous meningitis.<BR>Of these cases of meningitis, three cases showing disturbance of consciousness died, but no cases of death was found in cases by the screening. The length of time from the onset of symptoms to the diagnosis of tuberculosis was long in many of the cases complicated with tuberculosis of CNS compared with the cases without such a complication.<BR>In the cases of miliary tuberculosis, the rate of complication with tuberculosis of CNS is high, and the possibility of patients developing serious symptoms suddenly even when they were asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis and the paradoxical expansion that becomes intensified after initiation of treatment have been reported. Therefore, it is necessary to make a close checkup of CNS when the diagnosis of miliary tuberculosis has been made.
