Abstract
A case of tuberculosis of the colon is described. Attention is drawn to the similarity between this and other inflammatory diseases of the bowel. Colonic tuberculosis is now a rarity even where mycobacterial infection is endemic, and may mimic other inflammatory diseases of the bowel with important consequences for treatment and prognosis. Such a case is now described.Entities:
