Popis: Tuberculosis is a common infection in developing countries but genital tuberculosis is less common, confused with malignancy and difficult to diagnose at times. We present 2 cases of genital tuberculosis where a clinical diagnosis of malignancy was made and tuberculosis surprised us once again. This case report is intended to emphasize to suspect tuberculosis in young patients on the basis of history and examination to be later supported by investigations.
