Abstract

Tuberculosis remains a global public health issue. Lymph node tuberculosis is one of the most common extrapulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis, Mesenteric lymph node tuberculosis is rare and difficult to treat. It is revealed by intestinal obstruction in 20-27% of cases.

Knowing how to evoke the diagnosis of tuberculosis is the indispensable condition for rapid and adapted management. The surgical treatment is not standardized and depends primarily on the reason for the surgical indication.

We present a rare case of a Small bowel obstruction by a Primary flange on mesenteric ganglionic tuberculosis, who benefited from a surgical cure.

Keywords: Tuberculosis, flange, small bowel, mesenteric ganglionic
