Abstract
We report on three cases of tuberculous tenosynovitis of the wrist. All cases were treated surgically, and histological findings confirmed the diagnosis of tuberculous tenosynovitis. Postoperative chemotherapy was successful and there were no recurrences.It is necessary to consider tuberculous tenosynovitis in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue tumorous lesions of the wrist.
