EDITORS COMMENTS
The print showcases a striking image of Spleen tuberculosis C015 / 6399, providing a glimpse into the devastating effects of miliary tuberculosis (TB) on the human body. The gross specimen of a sectioned spleen reveals an intricate network of white tubercules, which are nodular lesions formed by infected dead tissue. Miliary TB is a chronic form of the disease where Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria spread from the lungs to other organs, including the spleen. If left untreated, this type of TB can be fatal. The image serves as a stark reminder of the destructive power that this bacterial infection holds. The photograph captures not only the pathological aspects but also highlights how invasive and abnormal these tubercules appear within the splenic tissue. It offers valuable insights into understanding and studying this debilitating condition. This medical image is an important resource for healthcare professionals and researchers alike who seek to comprehend and combat TB more effectively. By shedding light on its visual manifestations, it aids in diagnosis, treatment planning, and furthering our knowledge about this infectious disease. Courtesy of CNRI/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this print stands as a testament to both scientific exploration and artistic representation in capturing complex medical conditions like spleen tuberculosis.
