Since such lesions develop in less than 7% of cases of human tuberculosis, the paleodemography and paleoepidemiology of this disease have been difficult to assess from skeletal remains.<\/jats:p><jats:p>This study presents a new diagnostic approach to tuberculosis, focusing on the skeletal manifestations of chronic pulmonary disease (which comprises approximately 90% of human\u2010form tuberculosis). Four hundred forty\u2010five skeletal remains from persons dying of tuberculosis during the first half of the 20th century were examined. A total of 70\/445 (16%) exhibited skeletal lesions in one or more locations as a response to infection. Of these 70, 39 (56%) were found to display a specific set of lesions restricted to the internal aspect of the ribs. These lesions take one of two forms: (1) diffuse periostitis or (2) localized abscess, and appear to correspond to areas of chronic pulmonary infection. The diffuse type of rib lesion is more commonly observed than the localized type.<\/jats:p><jats:p>In our observations (and according to the natural history of tuberculosis) the occurrence of chronic pulmonary tuberculosis is usually mutually exclusive with hematogenous dissemination to secondary bone locations. Thus, the detection of rib lesions in cases of chronic pulmonary disease increases the absolute sample size of skeletal tuberculosis by a factor of two in this study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330650407","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,3]],"date-time":"2006-02-03T22:47:53Z","timestamp":1139006873000},"page":"381-386","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":123,"title":["Rib lesions in chronic pulmonary tuberculosis"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"Marc A.","family":"Kelley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marc S.","family":"Micozzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,5,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","first-page":"985","article-title":"Documentation of a case of tuberculosis in pre\u2010Columbian America","volume":"107","author":"Allison MJ","year":"1973","journal-title":"Am.
