ABSTRACT
Colonic tuberculosis is an uncommon presentation of gastro intestinal tuberculosis. We describe a 46-year-old patient who presented with massive rectal bleeding. The patient had required a surgical resection following which the patient died to complications. This case emphasizes the need to include colonic tuberculosis in the diagnosis of lower intestinal bleeding
