Bilateral sternoclavicular joint tuberculosis.

M S Dhillon1, R Gupta, K S Rao, O N Nagi.   

Abstract

A unique case of bilateral sternoclavicular tuberculosis is presented, with discussion of the possible mechanism of infection. Early diagnosis is mandatory for good results, and with a world-wide resurgence of this disease, a high index of suspicion is mandatory (especially in immunocompromised patients and migrant populations). Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are helpful for defining the exact extent of the disease.
