Isolated tubercular splenic abscess in an immunocompetent child.
2007
: Splenic abscess is an uncommon entity in children, more so of tubercular etiology in immunocompetent patients. The few cases reported have usually revealed solitary abscesses in the spleen. We present a case of a 12 year-old immunocompetent girl who presented with fever and pain abdomen and was detected to have multiple tubercular abscesses in the spleen in the absence of any other focus of tuberculosis.
