摘要
We report a case of extra pulmonary tuberculosis with multiple localizations including bone and kidney in a 21-year-old Pakistani immigrant living in Belgium. Late diagnosis of tuberculosis may lead to end stage renal disease and dialysis. Countries with low prevalence of tuberculosis should be vigilant towards high risk groups for tuberculosis because this preventable and curable disease may lead to devastating complications when diagnosed late.
