Özet

Extra-pulmonary tuberculosis may affect multiple sites within the body. The symptoms vary widely and diagnosis requires a high clinical suspicion. In rare cases, tuberculosis may be manifest in the genitalia, initially presenting as infertility. Here we report a clinical case of a 23-year-old female with peripartum genital tuberculosis who presented at 2 weeks after delivery with fever and increasing abdominal girth. © Springer 2013.
