Cavernous liver tuberculosis
Cavernous liver tuberculosis is very rare and is detected only on autopsy or by histological examination of biopsy material obtained during surgery or laparoscopy. Hepatic damage occurs due to infection from the primary pulmonary tuberculosis complex and in the progressive course can be complicated by mechanical jaundice and subdiaphragmatic abscess. With a prolonged course, delayed diagnosis, and treatment, cavernous liver tuberculosis can cause arrasive bleeding and gastrointestinal fistula formation.
