Delayed diagnosis of female genital tuberculosis (FGTB) can lead to inappropriate treatment and unnecessary surgical procedures rather than standard anti-TB medication. We tried to evaluate the use of computed tomography (CT) imaging to differentiate TB peritonitis from peritoneal carcinomatosis of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC). We investigated women who underwent CT to distinguish between TB peritonitis and peritoneal carcinomatosis of AEOC. We evaluated various CT imaging features to identify differences between the two diseases. In addition, we performed univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses to identify the independent imaging parameters associated with TB peritonitis and evaluated the diagnostic performance of the combined imaging parameters. We also performed the histopathological analysis of the available salpinx specimens of TB peritonitis. We included 25 women with TB peritonitis and 34 women with peritoneal carcinomatosis of AEOC. A multivariate analysis of the discriminant CT imaging features between the two diseases revealed that changes in fallopian tubes and peritoneal micronodules were independent parameters associated with TB peritonitis (p ≤ 0.012). Combining the two imaging parameters showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.855, a sensitivity of 88.0%, and a specificity of 67.7% for differentiating TB peritonitis from peritoneal carcinomatosis. Furthermore, changes in fallopian tubes were correlated with histopathological abnormalities in salpinx specimens. Pretreatment CT evaluation with useful imaging features could help differentiate TB peritonitis from peritoneal carcinomatosis of AEOC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
