Abstract

Tuberculous peritonitis in pregnancy is one of the least common forms of extrapulmonary tuberculosis in pregnancy. The case is described herein of a 23-year-old primigravida woman with primary tuberculous peritonitis in pregnancy at 24 weeks' gestation. Excisional biopsy taken from the peritoneum during laparotomy resulted in the histopathologic diagnosis of tuberculous peritonitis. The patient made a good physical recovery after being placed on antituberculous chemotherapy and gave birth to a healthy male neonate of 2.5 kg at 37 weeks' gestation by vaginal delivery.
