Abstract

A case is presented of a 69 year old male patient with a history of wrist fracture from over 50 years ago with pain refractory to analgesics and with joint destruction of the wrist in conventional radiology. We have conducted a review of extrapulmonary tuberculous osteoarthritis discussing the diagnosis and treatment of this unusual presentation of the disease.
