| Core Tip |
Tuberculosis mostly attacks the lungs, and extrapulmonary tuberculosis involving the central nervous system is rare. However, we should still pay attention to these cases, timely diagnose and properly treatment. we report a case of the young male patient, after the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis, his disease progressed and involved the spinal cord, leading to paraplegia and urine fecal incontinence. Unfortunately, after surgical resection of the spinal intramedullary lesion, the paraplegia failed to recover, and only urine fecal sensation recovered, but he can not defecate on his own. As a result, the patient remained in a wheelchair for 10 years after the operation. |
