Cell-free DNA blood test for the diagnosis of pediatric tuberculous meningitis
Pediatric tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a severe form of tuberculosis that may present in children. The current diagnostic methods may have a limited impact on initial clinical decision-making. We present three children with tuberculous meningitis who had Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex cell-free DNA (cfDNA) detected in their blood within three days of sampling. Our cases described here illustrate for the first time the potential role of cfDNA blood tests in the rapid diagnosis of TBM.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Clinical Tuberculosis and Mycobacterial Diseases aims to provide a forum for clinically relevant articles on all aspects of tuberculosis and other mycobacterial infections, including (but not limited to) epidemiology, clinical investigation, transmission, diagnosis, treatment, drug-resistance and public policy, and encourages the submission of clinical studies, thematic reviews and case reports. Journal of Clinical Tuberculosis and Mycobacterial Diseases is an Open Access publication.
