OOPPSSS
This is Embarrassing
During the operative procedure surgeon found
several lymph nodes to be enlarged Being
curious he took a lymph node for biopsy..
Guess what?? The biopsy revealed that the
ulcer was in fact a tuberculous ulcer.
Patient had MT test done previously but MT
test showed only 5mm of induration on the 3rd
day.. So, TB was ruled out initially. But turns
out the diagnosis was TB all along..
So, what did we learn from
it??
In Bangladesh, EVERYTHING IS TB.. :@
