A rare complication of miliary tuberculosis: intestinal perforation.
Small bowel perforation is a rare complication of miliary tuberculosis. We report the case of a 21-year old patient who developed a small bowel perforation 70 days after the initiation of adequate tuberculosis treatment. We also present a review of the literature.

Prevalence of serum antibodies to hepatitis B and C viruses in patients with primary glomerulonephritis.
We retrospectively analysed the medical records of patients who underwent renal biopsy in our nephrology department over the past 8 years. Our aim was to discover the frequency of hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) in patients with primary glomerulonephritis (GN) in Turkey, a moderately endemic country for both infections. The study included 144 male and 104 female patients aged between 12-70 years. The frequency of HBsAg and anti-HCV were found to be similar to healthy controls, respectively 6.5% and 1.6% (p>0.05). As is true for low endemic countries, HBV and HCV infections might be rarely associated with GN in Turkey.
