Abstract
Lymph node tuberculosis is a common clinical bacterial infectious disease. Regional lymph node tuberculosis is often difficult to cure by surgically radical resection. In addition, its recurrence rate is higher, and it can easily cause lymphatic leakage. This case was considered to have left axillary lymph node tuberculosis. A combination of clinical examination, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging examinations were performed before surgery. The surgical procedure performed was left axillary lymph node excision. Postoperative pathology confirmed the lymph node tuberculosis. The patient was given anti-tuberculosis drug treatment with no recurrence after 6 months follow-up. This provides new ideas and methods for the clinical treatment of regional lymph node tuberculosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
