| Core Tip |
Intra-peritoneal tuberculous abscess (IPTA) is a rare and serious form of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. Early and accurate diagnosis of tuberculous abscess is important for treatment. This retrospective study was to evaluate the computed tomography (CT) features in 8 patients with pathologically confirmed IPTA. CT is crucial in the detection and characterization of IPTA. Although the qualitative diagnosis of IPTA requires positive pathologic findings, certain CT features (such as a multiseptated, peripherally enhanced, hypodense mass with rim-enhanced lymph nodes, peritoneum/mesentery/omentum changes) are necessary for correct diagnosis.
