Abstract：
Tuberculosis (TB) is a significant health problem and mortality in most developing countries. It is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and M. tuberculosis complex. It can be pulmonary form or Extra pulmonary form. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis involving temporomandibular joint is infrequent presentation of Skeletal TB. Here we present a rare case of extrapulmonary tuberculosis that was initially misdiagnosed as a parotid lesion due to atypical signs and symptoms and multiple in-conclusive FNAC reports. The final diagnosis was established by histopathological report.
摘要：
结核病（TB）是大多数发展中国家的重大健康问题和死亡率。它是由结核分枝杆菌和结核分枝杆菌复合体引起的慢性肉芽肿性疾病。它可以是肺部形式或肺外形式。涉及颞下颌关节的肺外结核很少出现骨骼结核。在这里，我们介绍了一例罕见的肺外结核病例，该病例最初因非典型体征和症状以及多项决定性的FNAC报告而被误诊为腮腺病变。最终诊断由组织病理学报告确定。
