We present a unique case of a 50\u2010year\u2010old female with a history of miliary tuberculosis who developed gastrointestinal amyloidosis. The patient exhibited chronic loose stools, weight loss, abdominal pain, and urinary incontinence symptoms. Diagnostic workup revealed characteristic findings of amyloidosis on biopsy. Despite treatment for tuberculosis, her symptoms persisted, highlighting the challenging nature of managing this condition. This case underscores the importance of considering tuberculosis as a potential cause of secondary amyloidosis in patients with ongoing symptoms of inflammation and infection. Early recognition and tailored management are crucial in optimizing patient outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.8978","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,25]],"date-time":"2024-05-25T03:59:15Z","timestamp":1716609555000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Gastrointestinal
