[Memento intestinal tuberculosis].
We report the history, symptoms and diagnostic procedures of eight patients (four female, four male; mean age 44.5 years) with abdominal tuberculosis. In all cases differential diagnosis was complicated by an inadequate interpretation of chest X-rays. Only two patients were immigrants. Chemotherapy of tuberculosis was successful in seven patients, one 65-year old female with miliary tuberculosis and ileus died.
