Disseminated Tuberculosis Related to Child Acute Cytomegalovirus Infection

Abstract:

The spreading of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) through lymphohematogenous pathways with multi-organ damage is disseminated tuberculosis (DT). The case of a child presenting disseminated tuberculosis and who had an acute cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection at the onset of the disease is described in this study. Patient aged 2 presented to Municipal Clinical Hospital of Oradea, Oradea, Romania area with high fever, generalized lymphadenopathy, multiple abscesses of the skin, poor growth, having a background with numerous hospitalizations for respiratory infections in the paediatric department. Chest and head radiography and computed tomography of the same areas show bilateral pleural effusion and osteolytic lesions. The presence of MT was determined from cultures of gastric aspirate and skin lesions. Serology for CMV-specific IgG and IgM antibodies was positive. The treatment of the patient was recommended following the National Tuberculosis Protocol precisely. The patient's response to treatment was slow. In order to diagnose DT in children (where this disease is severe and rare), a multidisciplinary approach combined with complex and sometimes invasive paraclinical investigations is required.
