Summary : Tuberculosis is a major public health problem in our country. Abdominal tuberculosis ranks third among the extrapulmonary localisations and account for 3% of the various topographic forms in Morocco. The pancreas and peripancreatic locations are much rarer than peritoneal and intestinal lesions. They present a pseudotumoral appearance that creates a diagnostic emergency. We report a case of pancreatic tuberculosis observed in the general surgery department of the 5th Military Hospital. |
