We present a case of disseminated tuberculosis with peritoneal and intestinal involvement in a homosexual patient who presented micronodular fibrosis and was infected by HIV, with an AIDS diagnosis since he had previously presented an esophagitis caused by candida. Diagnosis was made from a sample obtained from an ulcerated lesion from rectum-sigmoid region by colonoscopy, and when stained with Ziehl-Nielsen revealed acid-alcohol resistant bacilli (AARB) identified as M. tuberculosis. The torpid evolution of the process, which was complicated by the uncompensation of the cirrhosis determined the patient's death inspite of treatment. The characteristics of intestinal tuberculosis in HIV infected patients is reviewed.
