Patient's question:
What are the sequelae of tuberculous meningitis? My father-in-law told my mother-in-law that if he gets this disease, he needs to be hospitalized for treatment.Doctor's answer:
Post-infectious sequelae of tuberculous meningitis refer to patients who have recovered from tuberculous meningitis after treatment, but whose brain tissue damaged by Mycobacterium tuberculosis cannot return to normal, resulting in sequelae. This condition depends on the specific severity of the sequelae and the part of the brain tissue affected to determine what clinical symptoms may reappear. Additional clinical symptoms are used to decide on the treatment method.
