原发性宫颈结核酷似宫颈癌:一例罕见病例

Abstract

This is a rare case of a 35 year old multiparous lady with complaints of postcoital bleeding and foul smelling discharge for 3 months. On per speculum examination, a large irregular friable growth was seen which used to bleed on touch. A provisional diagnosis of carcinoma cervix was made, but the cervical biopsy revealed granulomatous inflammation with caseation, consistent with the diagnosis of cervical tuberculosis. The patient responded well to 6 months of antitubercular treatment. Hence, tuberculosis should be kept as a differential diagnosis of carcinoma cervix.
