500,000 cases of extrapulmonary TB reported between 2003 and
2014 in Europe, extrapulmonary disease was associated with age <15 years, female sex, no previous TB treatment, and geographic origin; origin from the Indian subcontinent or Africa was associated with lymphatic, osteoarticular, and peritoneal/digestive disease, and age <15 years with lymphatic and CNS disease.9
In areas with higher burdens of TB, the reported frequency and sites of disease have varied significantly. In Tianjin, China between 2006 and 2011, only 10% of the reported 14,561 adult TB patients had extrapulmonary disease of which approximately two-thirds had pleural disease.10 Patients with extrapulmonary TB were more likely to be 65 years and older and to live in urban areas. In Ghana, among 3342 patients ≥15 years of age, 728 (21.8%) had extrapulmonary disease but the most common forms were disseminated (32.8%), pleural (21%), spine (13%), and CNS (11%). HIV positivity and female sex were significantly associated with extrapulmonary TB, and older age, HIV positivity,
and CNS disease were associated with mortality.11 A recent study from South Africa described a 13% decrease in TB cases overall between 2009 and 2013, however, TB meningitis and bone and joint TB increased whereas TB pleuritis and lymph node disease remained stable, and miliary/disseminated disease declined.12
Extrapulmonary TB has been reported to be more common in HIV-infected patients, and the risk increases as the CD4 count decreases.3 A systematic review evaluated 16 studies (15 cross-sec- tional and 1 case–control) conducted from 1984 to 2016.13 Most of the individual studies showed increased odds of extrapulmonary TB compared with pulmonary TB alone among HIV-infected individuals although a pooled estimate was not provided. In another systematic review that included 19 studies (7 case–control and 12 cohort studies), the authors reported a significant association between HIV and extrapulmonary TB.3
Risk factors for extrapulmonary disease have varied across studies. Untreated HIV infection, infancy, corticosteroids or other

forms of immunosuppression, and female sex have been identified in several studies.14 A study that evaluated 10,152 and 277,013 extrapulmonary TB cases from the United Kingdom and United States, respectively, reported that local-born white individuals had a lower frequency of extrapulmonary TB than local-born nonwhites and both groups had a lower proportion of extrapulmonary disease than foreign-born nonwhites.14 Vitamin D deficiency was strongly associated with extrapulmonary disease independent of ethnicity, sex, or other factors.
The impact of extrapulmonary TB on mortality has varied between studies although on average pulmonary TB has been associated with a higher all-cause case fatality rate than extrapulmonary TB.15 A study from the United Kingdom followed 571 cases of TB and assessed outcomes 1 year after initiating therapy.16 Age at diagnosis and pulmonary TB were independently associated with death. In a retrospective study from Singapore, having both pulmonary and extrapulmonary disease was associated with a higher mortality than pulmonary disease alone.17 In that study, extrapulmonary TB alone trended toward lower mortality. In Texas, age ≥45 years, HIV infection, excessive alcohol use within the past 12 months, end-stage renal disease, and abnormal chest radiographs were independent predictors of mortality during TB treatment.18
There are few studies addressing long-term mortality in patients with TB. A nationwide cohort study in Denmark from 1997 to 2008 reported that all-cause and cause-specific mortality were higher among adults with pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB than the general population.19 A total of 8291 patients were assessed including 6402 with pulmonary TB and 1889 (22.8%) with extrapulmonary disease. The mortality rate ratio was 1.86 and 1.24 for pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB, respectively. The increased risk of death in both groups was related to infectious diseases and diabetes mellitus. Additionally, the increased mortality in those with pulmonary TB was associated with cancers (primarily respiratory and gastrointestinal), liver and respiratory system diseases, and alcohol and drug abuse.
PATHOGENESIS OF
EXTRAPULMONARY DISEASE
Most extrapulmonary TB arises from the hematogenous spread of tubercle bacilli throughout the body during the initial tuberculous infection. Despite this presumably universal phenomenon, only about 20% of all patients with TB develop extrapulmonary disease as the only site of disease.5,6,20 Why some individuals present with extrapulmonary TB and others with pulmonary disease only is not clear although immune defects appear to play a role. Previous studies have reported higher rates of extrapulmonary TB in HIV-infected persons and the rate increases as the CD4 lymphocyte decreases.3,4 Young children also have an increased incidence of extrapulmonary disease presumably because of an immature immune system.21
HIV-uninfected patients who have previously had extrapulmonary TB have been shown to have reduced peripheral blood mononuclear cell cytokine production and CD4 lymphocytes compared with those with previous pulmonary TB or latent TB infection.22,23 In an in vitro model, persons with previous extrapulmonary TB had decreased production of several cytokines (interferon [IFN]-γ, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-alpha, IL-6 [interleukin-6]), both at rest and after stimulation with M. tuberculosis, suggesting a global immune defect that affects the response to M. tuberculosis infection.24 Extrapulmonary TB has been associated with genetic polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and toll-like receptor (TLR)-2,25,26 and increased macrophage expression of VDR after stimulation with live M. tuberculosis has been reported in persons with previous extrapulmonary TB compared with those with previous pulmonary TB, LTBI, and uninfected controls.27
In addition to disease resulting from lymphohematogenous spread, TB can occur rarely at sites of skin puncture, such as in the case of direct inoculation of M. tuberculosis into the skin, referred to as “prosector’s wart,”28 or through mucosal inoculation in the case of laryngeal TB or gastrointestinal TB.
CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS AND
DIAGNOSIS: GENERAL COMMENTS
Diagnosis of extrapulmonary TB can be challenging due to the nonspecific symptoms and signs of disease, the challenge of obtaining appropriate fluid and tissue for diagnostic testing, and variable sensitivities and specificities of diagnostic tests. Acid-fast bacillus (AFB) smear microscopy and mycobacterial cultures remain critical in the diagnosis of TB and should be pursued in all patients suspected of having extrapulmonary disease.29 Although the sensitivity of AFB smear microscopy is relatively low (<50%), the specificity is typically over 90%. For mycobacterial cultures, the sensitivity varies significantly by site of disease with a sensitivity 80%–90% for urine cultures in genitourinary TB to 23%–58% for pleural TB.29 In some areas of the world, drug-resistant TB is common so obtaining appropriate specimens for culture and drug susceptibility testing is critical. For example, over a 6-year period (2005–2012) in New Delhi, India, over 30% of extrapulmonary isolates were found to harbor drug resistance to isoniazid (INH) and approximately 20%
