Abstract

Tuberculosis is the most common infectious disease, having varied clinical presentation and has the ability to affect any organ in the body. Tuberculosis can mimic many diseases including malignancy and act as a diagnostic chameleon. Masses constitute a clinical problem for differentiating between tuberculosis and malignancy. Here we present a case of 33 years old female with a presumptive diagnosis of malignancy but subsequently turned out to be tuberculosis with no evidence of malignancy.


KEYWORDS: Tuberculosis, Infectious disease, Mimicking, Malignancy
