Authors presents a case report of a 5 month´s girl which was unsuccessfully calmetised and which was taken ill with tuberculosis. Acute

miliary tuberculosis is accordingly with acute basillary meningitis the most severe form of postprimary tuberculosis and has a high mortality.

In the area of Czech republic this illness was not seen since 1979. The calmetisation protects against those severe forms. The main

goal of this presentation is to remind this rare disease which is very dangerous for no-calmetised or unsucessfully calmetised persons.

Keywords: TBC, acute miliary tuberculosis, calmetisation, antituberculotics
