Abstract
We report a case of congenital tuberculosis diagnosed by liver biopsy in a 8-week-old infant presented with acute abdomen. Liver biopsy showed multiple lymphoepitheloid cell granulomas with Langhans' giant cells and central necrosis. The culture of caseous material from the liver showed Mycobacterium tuberculosis . Antituberculous treatment was started. Endometrial biopsy in the asymptomatic mother confirmed the source of infection.
