title: [Morphology of active tuberculous coxitis in adults].
abstract: 16 patients with active tuberculous coxitis (ATC) aged 19-54 were treated surgically. Histological evidence on the removed tissue specimens from 6 patients elucidated a number of features characteristic for active specific inflammation in adults versus children. These are: balanced alternative-exudative and productive changes, absence of advanced necroses, purulent necrotic mass and formation of cavities and abscesses, presence of marked focal and diffuse leukocytic infiltration.
