Additional Info
Tuberculous arthritis is caused by the bacteria, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. TB).
A very small number of people who have TB will develop this form of arthritis. The joints most often involved are the:
- Ankles
- Hips
- Knees
- Spine (Spine, tuberculosis (Pott's disease))
- Wrists
Most cases involve just one joint.
TB involving the spine is often referred to as Spine, tuberculosis (Pott's disease). It makes up about half of all TB-related bone infections.
