- Title
A late sequel of post-arthrodesed tuberculous hip: secondary ankle arthrosis.
- Authors
Sharma, H.; Taylor, G. R.
- Abstract
The long-term sequelae of the tuberculous infection of the hip may be local or distant, biological or immunological. We describe a 73-year-old woman with a secondary ankle arthrosis as a late biomechanical sequel to arthrodesis of the ipsilateral tuberculous hip. To the authors’ best knowledge, a similar case report has not been published previously in the medical literature.
