摘要

摘要：结核性乳突炎（TBM）是一种罕见的肺外结核病（TB），如果不及时治疗，可能会导致灾难性的并发症，包括乳突和听小骨破坏、听力丧失和颅内播散。由于肺外结核具有贫血的性质，诊断具有挑战性，再加上获取标本的手术室通道有限，导致诊断和治疗被延误。在本病例系列中，我们讨论了 2022 年在东开普省公共和私营医疗保健部门就诊的三例肺结核病人（一例儿童，两例成人），强调肺结核不分社会经济地位。

Tuberculous mastoiditis - a case series.

Summary: Tuberculous mastoiditis (TBM) is a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB), which may result in catastrophic complications, including mastoid and ossicle destruction, hearing loss and intracranial spread if untreated. Diagnosis is challenging due to the paucibacillary nature of extrapulmonary TB, compounded by limited theatre access for specimen retrieval, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment initiation. In this case series, we discuss three cases of TBM (one paediatric and two adults) who presented to the public and private healthcare sectors in the Eastern Cape in 2022, underscoring that TB does not respect socioeconomic status.
