Abstract
Gastroduodenal tuberculosis (GDTB) is an uncommon condition which can mimic other gastrointestinal disorders. It usually occurs secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis. We describe two young Somalian patients who presented with abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. GDTB was diagnosed in both patients and they were successfully treated with antituberculous drugs.Entities:
