    Tuberculous oesophagitis is an extremely rare condition, affecting the esophagus in only 0.14% of tuberculosis autopsies. It should be considered in dysphagia cases linked to other tuberculosis manifestations.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Pulmonology

    Background:

    • Tuberculous oesophagitis is a rare manifestation of tuberculosis.
    • Esophageal involvement is the least common in tuberculosis.
    • Literature review indicates a low incidence, with few reported cases.

    Observation:

    • Autopsy studies reveal an incidence of 0.14% in tuberculous patients.
    • Historical literature (pre-1954) documented only 125 cases.
    • Dysphagia associated with other organ tuberculosis or miliary tuberculosis suggests potential tuberculous oesophagitis.

    Findings:

    • Tuberculous oesophagitis is exceptionally rare.
    • The esophagus is the least likely organ to be affected by tuberculosis.
    • The condition is typically diagnosed when dysphagia coexists with other signs of tuberculosis.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses in clinical practice.
    • Suggests further research into the pathogenesis and diagnosis of tuberculous oesophagitis.
    • Emphasizes the need for comprehensive evaluation in patients with dysphagia and suspected tuberculosis.
