M A de la Espina1, C Lopez-Menendez, R Ruiz-Martinez, C Molino-Trinidad.   

Abstract

Actinomycosis is unusual, and rare especially when the lung and the thoracic wall are involved. It is more frequent in immunocompromised patient. US, CT, or MRI are imaging methods of diagnosis with high sensibility to recognise the disease and are able to the management. We point out a rare case in a normal teenager with thoracic abscess.
