- Abstract
Isolated pancreatic tuberculosis is very rare, and it presents as a mass lesion and closely mimics pancreatic adenocarcinoma both clinically as well as on imaging. Further, pancreatic tuberculosis can also rarely mimic cystic tumor of the pancreas. We present an unusual case of pancreatic tuberculosis in a 42-year-old lady who presented with pain abdomen and had a cystic lesion with an enhancing mural nodule on computed tomography resembling a cystic tumor of the pancreas.
