Tubercular osteoarthritis, also known as tuberculous Arthritis, is a form of arthritis caused by the spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacteria responsible for tuberculosis (TB). It typically affects the joints, particularly the spine, hips, and knees, leading to inflammation, pain, and potential joint destruction. This condition often occurs in individuals with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis or in immunocompromised patients. Early diagnosis and treatment with antitubercular drugs are crucial to prevent severe joint damage and complications.
