Tuberculous abscess of the pancreas in AIDS: CT findings
Abstract
Tuberculous abscess of the pancreas is a rare complication of disseminated tuberculosis. The computed tomographic appearance of a tuberculous pancreatic abscess in a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is described. One should consider this diagnosis whenever a patient with AIDS has diffuse abdominal lymphadenopathy.
