Tuberculosis (TB) is a common communicable disease. Active TB infection may be complicated by both venous and arterial thrombosis which are often under-recognised. We report two patients with incidental TB associated thrombosis involving different venous systems. Both responded to anticoagulant and anti-tuberculous therapy (ATT). Patients with tuberculosis are at risk of VTE and careful monitoring for venous thromboembolism (VTE) is needed during ATT. Our case illustrates the importance of having a high index of suspicion for silent VTE as it may complicate active TB infection.
