-
Relating to or affected by tuberculosis. It is the better practice, following the analogy of the Latin terminations-aris and -asus, to restrict the term tubercular to conditions marked by the presence of (non-specific) tubercles or nodules, reserving tuberculous for conditions marked by an infiltration of (specific) tubercle; thus we may speak of tubercular, or nodular, leprosy, and tuberculous disease of the skin, or lupus.
By Stedman, Thomas Lathrop
