Clinical Utility of Polymerase Chain Reaction in the Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Different Types of Cutaneous Tuberculosis and Tuberculids

15 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The role of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the diagnosis of cutaneous tuberculosis in clinical practice has not been defined as no PCR assay has been tested in a large-scale clinical study. The objective of this study was to test the clinical utility of a PCR assay in the diagnosis of different types of cutaneous tuberculosis and tuberculids. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Analysis of archival biopsy...
