Angiographic, radiographic, and computed tomographic findings in tuberculosis of the jejunum.
Tuberculous involvement of the jejunum with thickening and infiltration of the bowel wall and subsequent gastrointestinal hemorrhage from multiple bleeding points was encountered. Bleeding could not be controlled by intra-arterial vasopressin infusion. To our knowledge this is the first report of angiographically demonstrated and treated tuberculous gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
