Abstract

Introduction and Objectives: Tuberculosis causes 10-55% of all hepatic ranulomas. Sputum Smear-negative patient suspected of having PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS is a diagnostic challenge. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of hepatic GRANULOMA in smear- positive PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS to decide whether hepatic biopsy could be used in diagnosing tuberculosis in Sputum Smear-negative patient suspected of having PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS. Materials and Methods: 34 patients (16 males; age range 14-71 years) with smear- positive PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS undergone hepatic biopsy in Sina hospital of KERMANSHAH, during the years 1995-98.Results: LIVER function tests were normal in all. In 5 of 34 patients (14.7%) hepatic GRANULOMAs were found.Discussion and Conclusions: Diagnostic gain of hepatic biopsy is too low to be recommended for diagnosing tuberculosis in Sputum Smear-negative patient suspected of having PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS.
