Post Partum Mystery Unravelled By Laparoscopy
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
Presentation of tuberculosis in the post partum period is extremely rare. Diagnosis is often difficult due to its non specific ,clinical , laboratory and radiological findings.This compounded by it’s presentation in the puerperal period provided a tough assignment to diagnose.Pelvic tuberculosis may often mimic various gynaecological disorders such as CA Ovary and Pelvic inflammatory disease hence clinical suspicion of the same is essential for careful diagnosis. We report two cases presenting in the puerperium with abdominal pain and fever that were diagnosed by post partum laparoscopy to be tuberculosis .
