Primary actinomycosis of the anterior abdominal wall: case report and review of the literature.

Branka Filipović¹, Nikola Milinić, Goran Nikolić, Tomislav Ranthelović.

Abstract

Actinomycosis of the anterior abdominal wall is a rare infection caused by different Actinomyces species. We report a case of primary actinomycosis localized on the anterior abdominal wall, diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) scan, postoperatively confirmed by histopathological examination and treated by surgical resection combined with postoperative antibiotic therapy. The patient has been free of recurrence after 1 year. A review of the available literature is also presented.
