[Pancreatic tuberculosis with duodenal fistula].

Tuberculosis is a common infection worldwide. In developed countries, the incidence of this disease was low until a few years ago. However, due to the rise in immigration and HIV infection, the frequency of tuberculosis has recently shown a marked increase. Although the most frequent location of tuberculosis infection continues to be respiratory, infection in other sites, such as musculoskeletal, genitourinary, neurological and abdominal areas, has recently become more common. Abdominal infection, the most frequently described extrapulmonary localization, commonly affects the spleen, liver, ileocecal region, peritoneum, and regional lymph nodes. Tuberculosis of the pancreas is considered a rare entity.
