[Primary pancreatic tuberculosis in an immunocompetent patient: first case report in Spain].

Primary pancreatic tuberculosis (PPTB) is an extremely rare entity defined by an isolated pancreatic lesion with microbiological confirmation, in the absence of previously identified tuberculosis (TB) and involvement of any other organ. We report the case of a 47-year-old man referred for abdominal pain and weight loss, in whom several imaging techniques revealed a solid mass in the head of the pancreas. CT-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology was consistent with necrotic granuloma.
