| Core Tip |
Symptoms of early-onset depressed mood and skin pigmentation in developing countries warrant consideration for Addison’s disease (AD) induced by adrenal tuberculosis (TB) Diagnostic anti-TB therapy with rifampicin is not recommended because of the risk of adrenal crisis; T cell spot test of TB negativity cannot be used as a criterion to exclude TB, especially in immunocompromised patients or those with hematogenous disseminated pulmonary TB; In AD caused by adrenal TB, recovering adrenal function is difficult, with most cases requiring lifelong hormone replacement therapy. |
