[Clinical and lymphographic findings in miliary tuberculosis with tuberculin anergy. Considerations on a case].
Abdominopelvic lymphadenography conducted with due care in a patient with miliary TB and anergy to tuberculin ruled out alterations attributable to retroperitoneal lymphomatosis, and revealed a picture of miliary lymphadenitis. Splenectomy induced positivisation of the reaction to tuberculin and paved the way for a favourable response to anti-TB chemotherapy.
