Mis-diagnosis of Genital Organ Tuberculosis Ending in a Severe Asherman Syndrome: A Case Report

Abstract

This case describes a female with long-term primary infertility, labelled with polycystic ovarian syndrome, who showed no response to the given treatments. Hysterosalpingography, performed as part of the in vitro Fertilisation (IVF) preparation, showed Asherman syndrome and calcified lymph nodes. Subsequently, further evaluations confirmed tuberculosis. The case highlights the necessity and importance of the proper assessment of the patients presenting with infertility for early detection of genital TB to prevent end-stage disease.
