Clinical characteristics in 26 children with congenital tuberculosis in Central Southern China: a retrospective study.
Background: Congenital tuberculosis (CTB) is relatively rare and most patients are described in case reports.
Aim: To investigate the clinical characteristics of CTB in 26 children.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 26 children with CTB from January 2013 to December 2021 in Changsha Central Hospital in Central Southern China was undertaken.
Results: The median age at onset was 25 days (17-33) and within 4 weeks of age in approximately 73% of cases. Of 24 mothers (including two mothers of twins), 18 (75.0%) were asymptomatic during pregnancy, and four were diagnosed with tuberculosis prenatally. The numbers of tuberculous meningitis, tuberculous encephalitis and liver TB were 17 (65.4%), five (19.2%) and four (15.4%), respectively. The main symptoms were fever (n = 18, 69.2%) and cough (n = 16, 61.5%). Positive rates of T-SPOT.TB, acid-fast bacilli smear, culture of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and GeneXpert MTB/RIF test were, respectively, 84.2% (16/19), 42.3% (11/26), 43.5% (10/23) and 83.3% (5/6). Radiograph or computed tomography demonstrated typical pulmonary tuberculous lesions in all cases and the head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed marked meningeal enhancement or parenchymal lesions in seven cases (26.9%). One case had drug-resistant TB. During follow-up, nine cases had varying degrees of liver injury, and one had delayed growth and development. Eight died and 18 recovered satisfactorily.
Conclusion: Maternal TB status during pregnancy, the epidemiological history, T-SPOT.TB and other TB-related aetiological tests and imaging are important for the early diagnosis and treatment of CTB, and are associated with a favourable outcome.
期刊介绍：
Paediatrics and International Child Health is an international forum for all aspects of paediatrics and child health in developing and low-income countries. The international, peer-reviewed papers cover a wide range of diseases in childhood and examine the social and cultural settings in which they occur. Although the main aim is to enable authors in developing and low-income countries to publish internationally, it also accepts relevant papers from industrialised countries. The journal is a key publication for all with an interest in paediatric health in low-resource settings.
