摘要
Abdominal tuberculosis can mimic many processes resulting in delayed diagnosis and unnecessary surgery. We describe a child of Moroccan parents with an abdominal mass caused by Mycobacterium bovis. The case stresses the need for increased awareness of M. bovis tuberculosis (TB) in general and extrapulmonary TB in the setting of foreign-born individuals who travel periodically to TB-endemic regions.
