Abstract:
We report a computed tomographic and echographic description of lymphadenopathy during a Whipple's disease. The computed tomography find low density of involved lymph nodes because of the high fatty charge, ultrasound revealed diffusely echogenic aspect. This cavitation was highly suggestive of Whipple's disease. Moreover, the computed tomography allows the follow-up of the disease.
