Abstract

Isolated involvement of peripancreatic lymph nodes is a very rare manifestation of tuberculosis. We report the computed tomography (CT) findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis presenting as a pancreatic mass causing biliary obstruction. Although very rare, tuberculosis lymphadenitis should be considered in young adults presenting with biliary obstructive symptoms, especially in endemic parts of the world.

Özet

Peripankreatik lenf nodlarının izole tutulumu, tüberkülozun çok nadir bulgularından biridir. Bu yazıda, blier obstrüksiyona neden olan pankreatik kitle seklinde presente olan bir tüberküloz lenfadenitin BT (Bilgisayarlı Tomografi) bulgularını tanımladık. Çok nadir olmasında rağmen, tüberküloz lenfadeniti bilier obstrüktif semptomlarla gelen genç erişkin hastalarda, özellikle dünyanın endemik bölgelerinde, ayırıcı tanıda akılda tutulmalıdır.
