CT findings of malarial spleen.

K Bae1, K-N Jeon.   

Abstract

Malaria is one of the most frequent causes of fever among travellers to tropical countries. We report the CT imaging findings of poor contrast enhancement of the spleen on arterial phase in a case of malaria presenting as splenomegaly. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of malarial spleen diagnosed by these CT results.
