SUMMARY
References
Summary
q TB is still a global and national public health problem.
q The gold standard in the diagnosis of AP TB is isolation and identification of the
pathogen (culture)
q Other diagnostics include histopathology, TB-PCR, AFB staining, imaging, laparoscopy
etc.
References
Summary
q Monitoring can include repeat imaging studies, repeat biopsy and improvement in the
patient’s clinical status.

INTERACTIVE
QUESTIONS
References
Interactive Question 1
What is the gold standard in the diagnosis of TB?
a. Biopsy/Histopathology
b. AFB staining
c. TB-PCR
d. Culture
References
Interactive Question 2
A 23 year old nulligravid came for abdominal enlargement of three months duration. She has a
history of inadequately treated pulmonary TB. On ultrasound, there was note of massive ascites. The
uterus was normal in size with a thin endometrium. Which of the following is the best diagnostic test
for this patient?
b. Endometrial curettage
References
Interactive Question 3
b. For genital TB, the most commonly affected part of the genital tract is the endometrium.
d. The tunica albuginea may play a role in protecting the ovaries from TB involvement.
References
Interactive Question 4
c. The sensitivity of PCR is lower for extra-pulmonary specimens due to their
paucibacillary nature.
References
Interactive Question 5
b. Surgery
