Crohn's disease or tuberculosis?

Kiley W J Loh1, Raouf Bassily, Joseph Torresi.   

Abstract

A Nepali-born migrant was diagnosed with intestinal tuberculosis (TB) after being initially considered for Crohn's disease. Differentiating the two diseases is challenging but important owing to variation in treatment, the potential for dissemination of TB under immunosuppression for Crohn's disease, and emergent Australian migration from TB endemic countries.
