    Author: Volobuev NN.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1994 Apr; (4):43-5. PubMed ID: 8041074.
    Abstract:
    Primary tuberculosis of the intestines was revealed in four patients. The process was localized in the cecum in three and in the descending colon in one patient. The true diagnosis was suspected before the operation in one patient, determined during the operation in two patients and after pathohistological study in one patient. The course of the disease was complicated by intestinal obstruction in three cases by anemia in one case. The differential diagnosis was made with intestinal tumors. Three patients underwent right hemicolectomy and one patient left hemicolectomy. Specific therapy was prescribed after recognition of the tuberculous process. All patients recovered.
