Gastric Tuberculosis.
Gastric tuberculosis is a very rare disease posing a diagnostic challenge to physicians, pathologists and radiologists. It usually occurs in females aged 25 to 45 years. Symptoms include epigastric pain, vomiting, fever, weight loss, upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleed and gastric outlet obstruction. High index of suspicion and endoscopic or endoscopic ultrasound guided biopsies may help in making an early diagnosis, particularly in patients with non-healing gastric ulcers. We report a case of gastric tuberculosis in a 55-year male, who presented with persistent vomiting, epigastric pain and significant weight loss. His upper GI endoscopy finding with histopathology results favoured the diagnosis of gastric tuberculosis. He was successfully treated with antituberculous regimen.
