Tuberculosis infection transmitted at autopsy.

R Lundgren1, E Norrman, I Asberg.   

Abstract

Tuberculosis can be a risk to staff and students in the autopsy room. We report three medical students and one technician who were infected with tuberculosis during two autopsies. In both cases pulmonary tuberculosis had not been diagnosed before death.
