ABSTRACT

A tuberculose peritoneal é uma situação rara com alta morbidade e mortalidade, sendo que o prognóstico depende do diagnóstico e tratamento precoces. Nos últimos anos tem havido aumento de incidência nos países desenvolvidos, principalmente em pacientes imunocomprometidos. Foram analisados retrospectivamente 12 pacientes com tuberculose peritoneal (7 homens, média de idade: 51 anos). As manifestações clínicas, comorbidades e métodos diagnósticos foram revisados. Ascite foi a manifestação mais prevalente. Tuberculose pulmonar associada estava presente em apenas 25% dos pacientes. A biópsia de peritônio foi diagnóstica em todos os casos. Deve haver alto grau de suspeita para estabelecer o diagnóstico de TBC peritoneal (AU)
