Role of laparoscopy in the diagnosis and management of abdominal tuberculosis

Female genital tuberculosis (FGTB) is asymptomatic or may present with a few symptoms among which infertility is the most common. The diagnosis of FGTB is challenging, as there is no single diagnostic test available.We researched 50 infertile patients by various special investigations and found 50% had tuberculosis, by various means. Endometrial biopsy and Hystero-laparoscopy are complementary procedures, and Cartridge Based Nucleic Acid Amplification Test is a useful new addition to the diagnostic armamentarium for endometrial and peritoneal samples.
