Abstract
|
|
|
|
Extrapulmonary tuberculosis, such as intestinal tuberculosis, has become more common with the increase in human immunodeficiency virus infection. However, the diagnosis and treatment of intestinal tuberculosis are often delayed because the symptoms are nonspecific and diverse. We experienced a case of AIDS with intestinal tuberculosis that manifested as a duodenal fistula. The presence of AIDS should be suspected in patients who have extrapulmonary tuberculosis with atypical presentations.
