RESUMEN
La tuberculosis de la pared torácica es excepcional y puede presentarse en forma de un absceso frío o una masa seudo tumoral. En ausencia de lesiones pulmonares o extra pulmonares sugerentes de TB, es difícil diferenciar un absceso tuberculoso de un tumor de la pared torácica. Se debe evaluar el diagnóstico de TB de la pared torácica, ante signos clínicos y radiológicos, especialmente en regiones de alta incidencia y prevalencia de la enfermedad. El pronóstico es muy bueno con el tratamiento actual para la TB Si se asocia cirugía para efectuar la resección del absceso, se reducen las complicaciones y/o recurrencias. Si bien su presentación es muy poco frecuente, la Peripleuritis deberá tenerse en consideración Habitualmente se asocia a lesiones pulmonares, linfáticas o costales en actividad Siempre que se conozcan sus caracteres anatomoclínicos, la clínica y la radiología permiten sospechar su diagnóstico.
ABSTRACT
Tuberculosis of the chest wall is rare and can present in the form of a cold abscess or a pseudo-tumor mass. In the absence of pulmonary or extrapulmonary lesions suggestive of TB, it is difficult to differentiate a tuberculosis abscess from a chest wall tumor. The diagnosis of TB of the chest wall should be evaluated, given clinical and radiological signs, especially in regions of high incidence and prevalence of the disease. The prognosis is very good with the current treatment for TB. If surgery is associated to perform abscess resection, complications and / or recurrences are reduced. Although its presentation is very rare, Peripleuritis should be taken into consideration. Associated with active lung, lymphatic or rib lesions As long as its anatomical-clinical characteristics are known, the clinic and radiology allow suspecting its diagnosis.
