Actinomycosis presenting as carcinoma.

J Hinnie1, B C Jaques, E Bell, D T Hansell, R Milroy.   

Abstract

Actinomycosis is rare compared to carcinoma, but the two conditions can present with very similar clinical pictures. Two cases of actinomycosis are reported, one thoracic and one pelvic-abdominal which presented as carcinoma and proceeded to surgery without a histological diagnosis having been established.
