Abstract

Miliary tuberculosis is a rare form of tuberculosis in industrialized countries. We report on a 69-year-old woman presenting a sepsis syndrome caused by cryptic miliary tuberculosis clinically mimicking a case of cholecystitis with sepsis. The patient died of a multi-organ failure on day 6 of her hospital stay.
