ABSTRACT

Background: In the last years has been an increase in cases of tuberculosis, representing a global health problem that is also reflected in an increased of cases in pregnant population. Especially in developed countries has been observed a direct relation with VIH patients,and groups of immigrants from countries where the infection is endemic. Tuberculous disease during pregnancy presents good outcome if it is diagnosed and treated properly.

Diagnosed with tuberculous meningitis and disseminated with a grim evolution until death.
