Add to ORKGDuodenal tuberculosis is very rare and accounts for only 1% of abdominal tuberculosis. We report a case of duodenal tuberculosis, which mimicked a malignant tumor. 18-year old boy was admitted with diffuse abdominal pain and constipation for 2-3 days, CT abdomen revealed duodenal wall thickening and nodules on the surface of liver, simulating duodenal carcinoma with liver metastasis. Since patient had presented with acute abdomen, he was referred to surgical service and underwent exploratory laparotomy with gastro-jejunostomy. Duodenal thickening and liver nodules were noted and biopsy revealed tubercular origin
