Most information on bone-joint (BJ)-tuberculosis is based data from high-incidence areas. We conducted a nationwide register-based analysis of BJ-tuberculosis in Denmark 1994 to 2011.We linked the national tuberculosis surveillance system BJ-tuberculosis, hospital records, Danish Hospital and Civil Registration System.We identified 282 patients with 3.6% all cases (n = 7936).
