[Granulomas in Intestinal Biopsies? Intestinal Tuberculosis Mimicking Crohn's Disease: A Case Report].
Intestinal tuberculosis is a bacterial infection that represents 10% of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. It is known as the great mimicker due to its clinical presentation similar to other diseases such as Crohn's Disease or Neoplastic Intestinal Disease. Its diagnosis is complex, given the paucibacillary characteristic of the disease. We present the case of a 57-year-old patient with an initial diagnosis of Crohn's Disease, starting immunosuppressive therapy. After no response to the initial therapy and with a new endoscopic and anatomopathological study, Intestinal Tuberculosis was concluded, which after starting therapy evolved favorably.
