[Diagnosis of tuberculosis of gastrointestinal tract].
The article deals with the difficulties of establishing the diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis. Seven patients were under observation. In 5 the diagnosis was made histologically after operative intervention. In 6 patients abdominal tuberculosis was combined with a specific process in the lungs. Two cases of tuberculosis of the stomach, intestine, and mesenteric lymph nodes following a course resembling that of an abdominal "tumor" are described. For the exclusion of tuberculosis it is recommended that fluorographic examination of the lungs should be included in the complex preoperative management of patients.
