Left colon stenosis caused by tuberculosis.
Journal of Pediatric Surgery 2004 October
The authors present a case of intestinal tuberculosis affecting exclusively the left colon causing severe undernourishment, abdominal pain, and bowel obstruction with a sealed colonic fistula in a 10-year-old child. These clinical characteristics and difficulties led to a diagnosis of intestinal tuberculosis in childhood. Intestinal tuberculosis affecting exclusively the colon is very rare, and differential diagnosis with Crohn's disease is difficult. Surgical complications are frequent, especially intestinal obstruction, and can be treated in most cases by resection of the affected segment and primary anastomosis.
