| pubmed:abstractText |
A 38-year-old woman who had a Cope needle biopsy of the pleura was treated for plural tuberculosis on the basis of a positive PPD-S skin test and presence of caseating granulomas in the pleural biopsy. Ten months later she developed a tender, subcutaneous nodule in the area of the previous needle biopsy. Surgical exploration revealed a dumbbell abscess through the chest wall communicating with an area of consolidation in the right middle lobe. En bloc surgical resection of the abscess and peripheral portion of the right middle lobe was curative, although all pathologic and cultural studies of the resected tissue were non-diagnostic.
