A case of primary intramuscular cold abscess in the left deltoid region is described. There was no underlying bone lesion in relation to cervical or thoracic spine, shoulder joint or upper humerus, and clavicle. It is postulated that the cold abscess might have developed as a result of reactivation of BCG lesion when the patient received a fresh dose of tubercular bacilli which produced only lymph node enlargement in the mediastinum because of the partial immunity the patient had.
本文描述了一例左侧三角肌区域原发性肌内冷脓肿病例。与颈椎或胸椎、肩关节或肱骨上段以及锁骨相关的潜在骨病变不存在。据推测,当患者接受新剂量的结核杆菌时,冷脓肿可能是由于卡介苗病变重新激活而形成的,由于患者具有部分免疫力,新剂量的结核杆菌仅导致纵隔淋巴结肿大。
