چکیده
|
During an archaeological excavation at a mediaeval monastery (flor da rosa,crato,portugal),a skeleton of a adult woman was found with two calcifications in the thoracic cage. the location and the macroscopic analysis of the calcifications allowed them to be assigned as pleural plaques. spectrometric analysis and scanning electronic microscopy enabled to establish that it originated with an infectious process. these results associated with the lesions found in the ribs and vertebrae strongly suggest tuberculosis as the cause of these pleural plaques. © 2013 sociedade portuguesa de pneumologia.
