Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A case of infectious mononucleosis (IM) which, on computed tomography (CT) scan, mimicked the morphologic features of lymphoma is reported. The CT findings in this case include generalized lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and focal low-attenuation splenic lesions in a fifty-three year old woman; these findings have not previously been described in patients with IM. This is most likely because IM is usually a clinical diagnosis confirmed by serologic testing. Imaging modalities such as CT scan have not routinely been utilized to support this diagnosis. |
