Abstract

Genital tuberculosis contributes to infertility in a significant proportion of females in developing countries. Although tuberculous salpingitis is not infrequent, it is rarely associated with pregnancy. We present here a case of special interest and rarity of a 27 year old female presenting with ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy complicating tuberculous salpingitis.
