Travelling through time, space and history if there is one disease which always comes to our mind is tuberculosis (TB). Still on many occasions it remains undiagnosed and hence not treated appropriately. In many instances patient is not able to give proper sputum sample or in a way it should be. On the top of it in resource poor countries availability of health care professionals is an issue to examine the sputum. Furthermore, when extra pulmonary TB is the case invasive diagnostic procedures such as biopsy becomes important which is a challenging thing to perform in many of our setups in our state. So, the aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of ADA in extra pulmonary TB. Methods: It is an analytical study in which serum ADA values in EPTB cases were compared with controls.100 patients matched for age and sex were included. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 27. Results: Our data analysis showed mean ADA levels in EPTB patients was 43.6 which was significantly higher than control group(p value <0.001).
