ABSTRACT
The use of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) increases a patient's risk of developing tuberculosis (TB). There is no consensus on whether restarting a TNFi after treating an active TB infection caused by previous TNFi exposure is safe. We report the first case of TB recurrence after recommencing a TNFi in a 37-year-old woman with a history of active TB infection caused by previous TNFi treatment.
