Özet

Tuberculosis, a disease with a wide clinical spectrum, can involve all tissues and organs. A 57-year-old case appeared in the form miliary tuberculosis after laryngeal oedema. Septic shock developed in the course of tuberculosis. Thrombocytopaenia then developed, while septic shock improved following antituberculosis treatment. Thrombocytopaenia improved after rifampicin was removed from the treatment regimen. We decided to present our case here as an interesting form of tuberculosis with complications.
