Primary esophageal tuberculosis mimicking esophageal carcinoma on computed tomography: A case report

Figure 1 Barium swallow examination shows slight thickening and narrowing of the gastro-esophageal junction with mucosal irregularity, nodularity, and moderate dilatation of the lower esophagus.

Figure 2 Barium swallow examination shows slight thickening and narrowing of the gastro-esophageal junction with mucosal irregularity, nodularity, and moderate dilatation of the lower esophagus.

Figure 3 Computed tomography sagittal section shows dilated and fluid-filled distal esophagus with significant mural thickening of the distal esophagus.

Figure 4 Computed tomography coronal section shows dilated and fluid-filled distal esophagus with significant mural thickening of the distal esophagus involving the gastro-esophageal junction and extending in region of the cardia.

Figure 5 Computed tomography axial section showing diffuse circumferential thickening of distal esophagus with luminal narrowing.

Figure 6 Computed tomography axial section shows significant mural thickening of the distal esophagus in region of the gastro-esophageal junction, extending in the region of the cardia. There is significant infiltration in the lesser omentum.

Figure 7 Multiple esophageal outpouching and mucosal abnormalities seen in the mid and distal esophagus. Large exophytic growth starting at gastro-esophageal junction and extending into the lesser curvature.

Figure 8 Multiple esophageal outpouching and mucosal abnormalities seen in the mid and distal esophagus. Large exophytic growth starting at the gastro-esophageal junction and extending into the lesser curvature.
