脾臟之結核病是臨床上非常少見的情況。本報告提出一個脾臟及腹腔內淋巴腺結核病而以持續發燒表現之個案。在結核病常見的地區，例如台灣東部，遇有持續發燒之病例時，肺外結核病是必須考慮的鑑別診斷之一。腹部超音波對於診斷可以提供有用的線索。

Tuberculosis of the spleen is a rare clinical condition. A case with tuberculosis of the spleen and intraabdominal lymphnodes presenting with unexplained fever was described. In areas where tuberculosis is prevalent, extrapulmonary tuberculosis should always be in the list of differential diagnosis for prolonged fever. An abdominal ultrasound examination will provide clue to the diagnosis.
