Abstract
Tuberculosis of the cervix is a rare disease and accounts for 0.1-0.65% of all cases of tuberculosis. We present an unusual case of a 57 years old female who presented with chief complaints of Serosaguineous vaginal discharge of one year duration and irregular firm cervix with contact bleeding and was clinically diagnosed to have cervical cancer. Histopathology revealed typical findings of cervical tuberculosis. Cervical tuberculosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis of cervical malignancy. The clinical presentation and diagnosis of cervical tuberculosis is reviewed.Entities:
