Termed as a rare entity so far "abdominal cocoon" which is an encasing of the small bowel within the fibrous membrane is usually of unknown origin, although at times, it may be seen secondary to a variety of conditions. Though described in literature as a rare entity we report a case of tubercular abdominal cocoon in 15 year old boy. This case report emphasizes the importance of this surgical condition in a tuberculosis endemic region.
“腹部茧状包裹症”迄今为止被视为一种罕见病症，它是指小肠被纤维膜包裹，其病因通常不明，不过有时可能继发于多种情况。尽管文献中将其描述为罕见病症，但我们报告了一例15岁男孩的结核性腹部茧状包裹症病例。本病例报告强调了在结核病流行地区这种外科病症的重要性。
