Abstract

Tuberculosis of the maxillofacial bones remains an urgent medical and social problem, despite the achieved successes in combating tuberculosis in general. According to the World Health Organization, approximately 10 million new tuberculosis cases are registered annually worldwide, of which 15-20% account for extrapulmonary forms. Among extrapulmonary localizations, bone and joint tuberculosis ranks third after lymph node and urogenital system tuberculosis, comprising 10-15% of all extrapulmonary forms. Moreover, the lesion of maxillofacial bones occurs in 0.5-2% of bone and joint tuberculosis cases, which creates significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges for dentists and maxillofacial surgeons.
