  • Title: Small bowel adenocarcinoma mimicking tubercular stricture. Role of enteroscopy in early diagnosis.
    Author: Sood GK, Chaudhary A, Kumar N, Jain SK, Broor SL.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 1991 Mar; 39(3):284-5. PubMed ID: 1880102.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient with high jejunal stricture initially thought to be tubercular in origin. There was, however, no response to antitubercular treatment and enteroscopic biopsy revealed it to be an adenocarcinoma. This case illustrates the role of enteroscopy and biopsy in the definitive diagnosis of high small bowel strictures.
