Abstract
AbstractGastric tuberculosis is very rare and is usually associated with pulmonary tuberculosis. Endoscopically, it usually resembles peptic ulcer disease or malignancy. We present a 28-year-old female who had a submucosal lesion in the body of the stomach that mimicked a submucosal tumor. Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration yielded caseous material, and the cytological examination confirmed the diagnosis of tuberculosis.
