Core Tip	Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease that has been around since ancient times and is still one of the top 10 causes of death globally. With a high incidence in lower-income countries. It is a global health concern, with gastrointestinal TB The third most common extrapulmonary form of TB. Here we present Primary gastroduodenal TB presenting as gastric outlet obstruction (GOO): A case report and review of the literature. The diagnosis of abdominal TB is often delayed since there are no distinct clinical signs and symptoms, and the disease can mimic other intra-abdominal pathologies. The most common causes of GOO include peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. TB should be included ddx when these dx is excluded. Surgery is inevitable when GOO is present at time of diagosis and proceed by antitubercular treatment.
