摘要
We report a case of pulmonary tuberculous lymphadenopathy in an asymptomatic 19-year-old female. Thoracic computed tomography (CT) scan showed enlargement of lymph nodes in right neck, mediastinum and left hilum with heterogeneous contrast enhancement. Positron emission tomography (PET) / CT with F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) demonstrated significantly increased metabolic activity of the lymph nodes. The lesions were diagnosed as tuberculous lymphadenopathy by histopathologic examination.
