Tuberculosis of the urachal cyst.

Tarun Jindal1, Mir Reza Kamal, Jayesh Kumar Jha.   

Abstract

Urachal cysts are uncommon. Rarely, these cysts can become infected. Tuberculosis of the urachal cyst is exceedingly rare, with only one case reported previously in the English language literature. Here we report the case of a 23-year-old male who presented with an infra-umbilical mass that turned out to be tuberculosis of the urachal cyst.
