We report a case of carcinoma stomach who had fever of three weeks duration. On evaluation he was detected to have
hepatic nodules. It was initially presumed to be due to metastasis. The biopsy of the nodules showed it to be of tubercular
in origin. He was treated with antitubercular treatment (ATT) and the fever resolved.
