Tuberculosis Endometritis Presenting as A Leiomyoma
Journal Title: International Journal of Fertility & Sterility - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
Genitourinary tuberculosis is a common extrapulmonary manifestation of tuberculosis. Taking into consideration that genitourinary tuberculosis may be associated with a diversity of presentations, its diagnoses may be difficult. A young woman with an initial presumptive diagnosis of a uterine leiomyoma presented with abdominal pain and a pelvic mass that after further investigations, she was diagnosed with genital tuberculosis.
