A case is reported of pseudotumoral retroperitoneal tuberculosis with invasion of left supraclavicular glands. Relative diagnostic efficacy of ultrasound and CT scan imaging is discussed as well as the differential diagnosis of this exceptional lesion. Exploratory procedures suggested with this type of picture are ultrasonography. CT scanning and possibly guided needle puncture biopsy to avoid surgical exploration. The value of the scanner for follow up review of results of antituberculosis treatment is emphasized.
