摘要
Tuberculosis constitutes an important health problem, affecting one third of the world's population. The pulmonary localization is the most frequent one, being rare the peritoneal presentation. Clinical manifestations are non-specific so the diagnosis requires a high level of suspicion. The case of a 13-year-old teenager hospitalized for peritoneal tuberculosis is reported. The objective is to describe a rare form of extra-pulmonary manifestation of M. tuberculosis infection in the pediatric age and to sensitize the medical community, in the current epidemiological context, to the reemergence of this disease and the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment as well as strengthening control and prevention measures.
