Extrapulmonary tuberculosis

Extrapulmonary tuberculosis refers to tuberculosis caused by tuberculosis through respiratory infections. It can also be spread to the various organs of the human body by lung lesions through the blood or lymphatic system. Tuberculosis occurs in various parts of the lungs. At present, significant progress has been made in the clinical treatment of common extrapulmonary tuberculosis. In particular, the progress of chemotherapy has saved many patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis who need surgical treatment from surgical pain. At the same time, improved surgical methods and strong chemotherapy after surgery have improved the effectiveness and safety of surgery and reduced postoperative recurrence. Although extrapulmonary tuberculosis is generally not contagious, it can cause pain and serious harm to people. Attention should also be paid to early detection and adherence to rational chemotherapy throughout the process.
