Abstract

A 25 year old woman presented with constitutional symptoms and biochemical evidence of biliary tract obstruction. A mass in the region of the head of the pancreas was detected and she underwent laparotomy which revealed isolated tuberculous adenitis of peripancreatic lymph nodes. Complete recovery resulted following the administration of isoniazid and ethambutal.
