Abdominal alterations in disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis: computed tomography findings

Objective:To evaluate the incidence and spectrum of abdominal computed tomography imaging findings in patients with paracoccidioidomycosis.Materials and Methods:Retrospective analysis of abdominal computed tomography images of 26 patients with disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis.Results:Abnormal abdominal tomographic findings were observed in 18 patients (69.2%), while no significant finding was observed in the other 8 (30.8%) patients.Conclusion:Computed tomography has demonstrated to play a relevant role in the screening and detection of abdominal abnormalities in patients with disseminated paracoccidioidomycosis.
