Tuberculosis of the pubic symphysis masquerading as osteitis pubis: a case report.

Abstract:

:Tuberculosis is one of the oldest diseases affecting mankind and is known for its ability to present in various forms and guises. Pubic symphysis is an uncommon site for tuberculous affliction; hence very few cases have been reported in the English-language literature. We present a rare case of pubic symphysis tuberculosis diagnosed as osteitis pubis before presentation to our institution. The patient made an uneventful recovery following antitubercular chemotherapy.
