Abstract

Tuberculous splenic abscess is an exceptional disease with silent presentation in disseminated tuberculosis infection. Imaging procedures allow to suspect this diagnosis in case of multilocular nodules of the spleen, or unilocular pseudotumoral macronodule. We report three cases of tuberculous splenic abscesses in two patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndromes and one with polycythemia vera. Under antituberculous treatment, clinical evolution was good with regression of the radiological features.
