[Case report of a patient with Pott's disease].
The author presents a case of tuberculosis inflammation of thoracic vertebra with cold abcess along the spinal column, Pott's disease, in a woman 42 years old, a worker, with subjective difficulties which had lasted over a year before the diagnosis was made. TBC lungs and other localities was in regression in the last 30 year, it was even thought overhauled. But in recent times because of great migrations of the population and the fall of personal and social standards growth of new cases as well as revival of the old ones has been observed. Hard cases of lung tuberculosis in the first place and then of other localities have been diagnosed sporadically since fluorography has not been done for a longer time due to wellknown reasons. The reasons for making diagnoses in the terminal phase of the shown case are the instilled manner and opinion of the physicians belonging to previous peaceful times that tuberculosis has been overhauled, so that now many of them react inertly about this disease. The author wants this review to be seen inside the actual conditions of life, work, nutrition, hygiene, health care possibilities and health care.
