Isi artikel

Tuberculosis is a community health problem. In developing country like Indonesia, the prevalency is still high. Based on anatomic location of the disease, it consists of pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Hepatic tuberculosis is one of the uncommon formS of extrapulmonary tuberculosis; defi ned as Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections in the liver and is usually secondary from tuberculosis of the lung or other organ. The clinical symptoms are usually not specifi c, like fever, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Liver TB is a rare but curable disease. Diagnosis of liver TB is difficult due to non-specific symptoms, signs, and variations on radiological findings. Histopathology examination is necessary for definite diagnosis of liver TB supplemented with TB-PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and AFB (acid-fast bacilli) stain. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, the disease is usually associated with good prognosis.
