[A case of persistent fever].
The Authors report a case of difficult diagnosis, clinically characterised by long-term persistent fever. Clinical and laboratory tests led to a first conclusion of a tubercular infection; later of a perisplenic hematoma and the persistence of high inflammatory indices directed to a different diagnosis.
