- Abstract
- A 29-year-old man has been presented with disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis and brain parenchymal tuberculous nodule. The CSF examination showed the features of subacute meningitis consistent with tuberculosis, and chronic granulomatous inflammation with acid-fast bacilli was found on pleural biopsy. He was treated with anti-tuberculous chemotherapy and showed subjective improvement of the symptoms. But rather rapidly progressive weakness of lower extremities and voiding difficulty were newly developed, and the thoracic spinal MRI showed diffuse epidural abscess along the entire thoracic segment. He showed excellent clinical improvement with additive steroid therapy.
