Intestinal tuberculosis is a rare diagnosis, which may often be mistaken for mb. Crohn or cancer. We present a case of a 57-year-old man, who was diagnosed with intestinal tuberculosis. Due to increased abdominal pain, a computed tomography was performed, revealing a growing sigmoidal tumour, and the biopsies taken showed an adenocarcinoma. Further histological tests revealed no spread of cancer, and the patient could receive curative surgery. While intestinal tuberculosis can appear similar to colon cancer, it may also as in this case be an intercurrent disease.
肠结核是一种罕见的诊断，常易被误诊为克罗恩病或癌症。我们报告一例57岁男性被诊断为肠结核的病例。由于腹痛加剧，进行了计算机断层扫描，发现乙状结肠肿瘤在增大，活检显示为腺癌。进一步的组织学检查显示癌症无扩散，患者可接受根治性手术。虽然肠结核可能看起来与结肠癌相似，但在这种情况下它也可能是一种并发疾病。
