CT features in abdominal tuberculosis: 20 years experience.

BACKGROUND: Abdominal tuberculosis (TB) is endemic in the developing world and is reemerging in the West. Since computed tomography (CT) has the ability to demonstrate changes in the peritonium, mesentry, lymphnodes, bowel and solid organs and is being increasingly used for primary evaluation of abdominal conditions, it is important to be familiar with the CT features of the disease. METHODS: CT findings were retrospectively analysed in 49 patients with proved abdominal TB.

Sonographic appearances of galactoceles.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate and summarize the sonographic appearances of galactoceles.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the sonograms and clinical records of 10 patients with galactoceles who had been examined over a 5-year period to evaluate breast lumps that had occurred during lactation or the puerperium.

Results: Sonograms from all patients showed well-defined lesions with thin, echogenic walls.
