Peritoneal tuberculosis arises from hematogenous spread of pulmonary foci or from direct spread from an adjacent structure. Diagnosis of peritoneal tuberculosis can be challenging due to nonspecific symptoms, insidious onset, and variable imaging findings. Herein, we report a patient presenting with ascites who was eventually diagnosed with peritoneal tuberculosis.
结核性腹膜炎源于肺部病灶的血行播散或邻近结构的直接蔓延。由于症状不具特异性、起病隐匿且影像学表现多样,结核性腹膜炎的诊断颇具挑战性。在此,我们报告一例以腹水为表现最终被诊断为结核性腹膜炎的患者。
