To assist physicians, especially young physicians, in identifying tuberculosis (TB) infection before the terminal stage, we analyzed 7 cases of numerous tuberculous granulomas in multiple organs and compared clinical and autopsy findings between cases. Patients ranged in age from 41 to 86 years at the time of death. The main chief complaint was fever of unknown origin (3 of 7 cases [43%]). The main underlying conditions were liver cirrhosis (2 of 7 cases [29%]) and chronic renal failure (2 of 7 cases [29%]). Two patients (29%) had been given methylprednisolone pulse therapy for various lung disorders. Active TB was not diagnosed before autopsy in 4 of 7 (57%) patients. Calcified lesions indicative of old TB were present in 4 of 7 (57%) patients. Thus, miliary tuberculosis may represent a re-emergence of latent TB infection in these cases. Various histologic features of nonreactive exudative inflammation were seen, along with granulomas containing Langhans giant cells with or without caseous necrosis in hypervascular organs, such as the lung, liver, and bone marrow. Physicians should be mindful of the possibility of miliary TB when older patients with hepatorenal disease and a history of TB infection have undergone immunosuppressive treatment. Active tuberculous infection can depend on the presence of an underlying disease and immunocompromise.
