ABSTRACT

It is a 53 years old female patient, white, with a personal history of bronchial asthma, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus type 2, alcoholism, alcoholic polyneuropathy, alcoholic liver disease, tuberculosis contact, multiple admissions for dematological lesions and respiratory sepsis, pathological hip fracture and disseminated osteolytic lesions. She was admitted with diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis, she evolved unfavorably with sepsis at various levels and progressive deterioration and died due to failure and multiple organ damage. The anatomopathological findings showed a systemic miliary tuberculosis that caused multiorgan damage and failure. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is responsible for most of the cases of tuberculosis, several risk factors favor this disease, most of the patients with the human immunodeficiency virus suffer from it. Granuloma is the histological finding that distinguishes it.
