title: [Radiological aspects of ileocecal tuberculosis. Apropos of 31 cases].
abstract: The radiological diagnosis of ileo-cecal tuberculosis is based on the analysis of various and polymorph semiological signs. The authors report a series of 31 cases of ileo-cecal tuberculosis. The concomitant involvement of the ileum and the cecum il up to 61.2% of all cases. The associated peritoneal involvement is observed in 35.4% of the cases. The hypertrophic form is the most common (57%) and the ulcero-hypertrophic form in 43% cases. The observation of ileum short stenosis, valve attempt, cecum retraction, and associated peritoneal involvement is in favour of the ileo-cecal tuberculosis origin.
