Abstract
In Tanzania, Tuberculosis is among the most common and important
diagnoses in a patient presenting with constitutional symptoms and lung
opacities on plain radiography. We report a 32-year-old male who was
misdiagnosed as extrapulmonary tuberculosis based on symptoms and
imaging. Further workup revealed a rare but aggressive metastatic
angiosarcoma.13 Apr 2020Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 21 Apr 2020Submission Checks Completed
