Resumen

La actinomicosis es una rara enfermedad infecciosa crónica que suele desarrollar abscesos y fístulas y que puede simular otras entidades como el cáncer, la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal o la diverticulitis.

Abstract

Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 67 años con una rara forma de actinomicosis. Clínicamente simulaba una enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal y tras realizar tomografía axial computarizada, tránsito intestinal y colonoscopia el diagnóstico de sospecha continuó siendo enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal. El diagnóstico definitivo se realizó tras el estudio anatomopatológico de la pieza de resección.

Abstract

Resaltamos la dificultad diagnóstica de esta rara entidad y la importancia del tratamiento antibiótico prolongado.

Abstract

Actinomycosis is a rare chronic infectious disease that usually develops abscesses and fistulas. It can also mimic other diseases such as cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases or diverticulitis. We present the case of a 67-year-old woman with an unusual form of actinomycosis. Clinically, the disease simulated an inflammatory bowel disease. Computerized axial tomography, intestinal transit and colonoscopy were performed and the suspected 1diagnosis continued to be inflammatory bowel disease. The definitive diagnosis was made after histopathological study of the surgical specimen. We highlight the diagnostic difficulty of this rare disease and the importance of prolonged antibiotic treatment.
