Abstract

Abscess of chest wall tuberculosis is a rare disease and accounts 15-20% of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. It may clinically resemble pyogenic abscess or thoracic wall tumor. We represent a case of 27 years old male patient referred with thoracal wall mass and intermittent cough. Patient underwent to excision of mass and subsequently antituberculosis therapy was administered.

Özet

Göğüs duvarı tüberkülozu soğuk absesi nadir görülen bir hastalıktır. Tüberkülozun ekstrapulmoner yerleşimi olguların %15-20’de görülür. Klinik olarak piyojenik abse ya da toraks duvarı tümörüne benzeyebilir. Bu yazıda göğüs duvarında kitle ve aralıklı öksürük şikâyetleri ile kliniğimize gelen 27 yaşındaki erkek hasta sunuldu. Tedavide, kitle eksizyonu ve postoperatif tanı sonrası antitüberküloz tedavi uygulandı.
