CT Findings in Melioidosis

ABSTRACTCT findings in 5 patients with melioidosis were presented. Lungs lesions consisted of upper lobe infiltration with a small thin‐walled cavity in 2 cases and lower lobe consolidation without cavity in another case. Pleural lesions may be seen as a small pleural nodule, effusion with associated lung lesion, hydropneumo‐thorax as a complication or the end stage fibrothorax due to chronic empyema thoracis. In one case hepato‐splenic microabscesses were observed.
