ABSTRACT
Nowadays, peritoneal tuberculosis is an entity that has been overdiagnosed in many
instances of health, not only in Mexico, it is sufficient to note in the literature that
this situation is still manifest. In addition, this entity proves to be difficult to diagnose
without proper interrogation, as well as adequate cabinet and laboratory diagnostic
tools. Therefore, the need arises to carry out an adequate interrogation when the
symptoms are clear about the entity treated. However, it should be noted that Mexico
is a country in which there are still abundant cases of tuberculosis, so timely diagnosis
improves not only the survival, but also the quality of life these patients come
to have after their illness.
