  • Title: Isolated cystic duct lymph node tuberculosis.
    Author: Sidhu DS, Singh M, Jindal RK, Gupta S, Simpy.
    Journal: J Indian Med Assoc; 2007 Aug; 105(8):460, 468. PubMed ID: 18236910.
    Abstract:
    Tuberculosis of the cystic duct lymph node without involvement of gall bladder is exceedingly rare. Cholelithiasis is a usual accompaniment. A case of 65-year-old woman was diagnosed to have cholelithiasis. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed and a prominent cystic lymph node was excised for biopsy. Histopathology surprisingly reported tuberculosis of cystic duct lymph node without affecting the gall bladder. Thereupon, she was treated with antituberculous chemotherapy.
