title: [Rectal malacoplakia. Contribution of x-ray computed tomography and endorectal echography].
abstract: The authors report about the observation of a case of malacoplakia with rectal involvement. They lay stress on the usefulness of computed tomography and of rectal echography, which allow assessing extension within the rectal wall and, as the case may be, into the lymph nodes. These examinations also allowed following up the disease, the signs of which abated with antibiotic treatment.
