In three patients, two women aged 71 and 59 years and a man aged 49 who had been living in the Netherlands for a long time and who were admitted because of vague symptoms, extrapulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis were diagnosed: tuberculosis of the lumbar spine with psoas abscess, tuberculous peritonitis and adrenal tuberculosis with Addison's disease in a patient with open pulmonary tuberculosis. All three recovered with tuberculostatic therapy (isoniazid, streptomycin, pyrazinamide and rifampicin).
We present a case of left ventricular rupture and formation of a pseudoaneurysm after silent myocardial infarction in a patient with Schmidt syndrome (polyglandular deficiency syndrome including Addison's disease, lymphocytic thyroiditis and diabetes mellitus). This case illustrates the possibility of myocardial rupture without hemodynamic collapse and a possible role of chronic steroid substitution.
