Tuberculose péritonéale pseudo tumorale: à propos d’une série de 14 cas

Abstract: La forme pseudo-tumorale de la tuberculose péritonéale est peu fréquente, mais son incidence reste considérable en zone d´endémie. Dans le but d´illustrer le problème de diagnostic différentiel avec le cancer de l´ovaire vu la grande similitude radio-clinique entre ces deux entités pathologiques, nous avons réalisé une étude rétrospective au service de gynécologie obstétrique de l´Hôpital Militaire d´Instruction Mohammed V de Rabat, portant sur 14 cas (n= 14) de tuberculose péritonéale pseudo tumorale.

“…Although abdominal pseudotumoral tuberculosis is rare, it presents with non-specific and often insidious clinical and radiological features, resembling an abdominal tumor. Diagnostic confirmation may necessitate invasive examinations, such as laparoscopy or laparotomy with biopsy, with only histological confirmation justifying the initiation of anti-tuberculosis treatment [ 2 ]. Routine procedures, including specific staining (Ziehl-Neelsen) and culture, are typically performed (with positivity rates ranging from 42% to 69%).…”

“…Pseudotumoral forms of tuberculosis are rare, regardless of location. It is difficult to diagnose and is often diagnosed late, as it can mimic the clinical, radiological, and endoscopic findings of many pathologies [ 1 , 2 ]. Its clinical presentation is often non-specific, and palpation of an abdominal mass may erroneously point to a malignant tumor pathology [ 3 ].…”
