Abstract
We report the radiologic presentations of two cases of peritoneal-pelvic tuberculosis. The initial interpretation based on the adnexal masses, ascites, omental and peritoneal thickening, and elevated serum CA-125 levels led to an erroneous preliminary diagnosis of disseminated ovarian cancer. In both patients, histologic examination showed tuberculosis. The clinical and radiologic findings resolved significantly after several months of multidrug antituberculosis treatment.Entities:
