A (esquerda) No plano axial, após contraste, documenta-se no mediastino posterior, colecção hídrica paraesofágica, estando o esófago assinalado pela seta. Imagem B (direita) No plano coronal, a colecção assume uma morfologia bilobada exercendo efeito de massa sobre as estruturas mediastínicas. Na imagem ampliada, no plano mais posterior, constata-se a presença de várias adenopatias pericentrimétricas reactivas à presença do abcesso.
