When Obstruction of the Main Bile Duct Reveals Abdominal Tuberculosis: A Case Report

Abdominal tuberculosis may occur in association with pulmonary tuberculosis or in isolation, without any other involvement and it encompasses several forms. The disease is characterised by a wide range of clinical and paraclinical features, and can mimic many other conditions. We report the case of a 30-year-old man, where a high level of suspicion, particularly in endemic areas and based on the context, was crucial in leading to the diagnosis.

Abstract

Abdominal tuberculosis may occur in association with pulmonary tuberculosis or in isolation, without any other involvement and it encompasses several forms. The disease is characterised by a wide range of clinical and paraclinical features, and can mimic many other conditions. We report the case of a 30-year-old man, where a high level of suspicion, particularly in endemic areas and based on the context, was crucial in leading to the diagnosis.
