Tuberculosis presenting as puerperal fever.

Abstract:

:Two cases of unusual postpartum fever in foreign nationals are presented. Prolonged work-up led to the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis as a cause of postpartum fever that responded well to antituberculous drugs. The signs and symptoms illustrated by these cases should alert physicians to consider tuberculosis in their differential diagnosis when caring for pregnant immigrants. The changing patterns and diagnostic and therapeutic problems are discussed.
