Abstract:
A case of infiltrative type of hepatic tuberculosis is presented. Ultrasonography revealed a very ill-margined, heterogenously low echoic lesion in the right hepatic lobe. CT scans demonstrated a very ill-defined, geographic, hypodense lesion with minimal contrast enhancement mimicking cholangiohepatitis or infiltrative tumor in the right hepatic lobe.
