Dadhwal et al. reported a case of TB flare in a 28-year-old nulliparous woman following endometrial aspiration, which drained 30 ml pus. Following this, high-grade fever and pain in abdomen with rigidity had appeared. PCR was positive for Mtb and histopathology showed necrotizing TB endometritis. She also showed features of chronic TB meningitis.
Our second case demonstrates an extremely rare case of TB of placenta in young woman, suffered from genital TB, which was overlooked before delivery. This woman had no any contact with TB infection, had no history of TB, had no any complaints before pregnancy and had no special complaints during her pregnancy. The delivery was normal with healthy baby. In Russian Federation the investigation of the placenta is standard approach, and TB inflammation (Fig. 5) and Mtb in the placenta (Fig. 6) were surprisingly revealed.
This woman got sick with TB in time of pregnancy - but her organism mobilized all reserves and localized TB inflammation in placenta only; the baby left well. In 3 months the calcification was found in the left ovary that was estimated as a sign of mother's self-recovery.
