ABSTRACT
A 69-year-old female was admitted to our hospital because of asthenia, anorexia and 20 kg weight loss. An ultrasound study and computerized tomography (CT) imaging revealed a mesenteric mass and laparotomy was performed. The diagnosis was mesenteric tuberculosis with jejunal involvement. This represents an atypical onset of tuberculosis in a non-immunosuppressed patient.
