Abstract
We described on computed tomography, two cases of pleural tuberculosis with parietal pleural enhancement and thickening associated with anot her external high density line. We called this parietal pleural and ex tra pleural change, the <<double band sign>>. After study of the regio nal anatomy, we think that this external line is the endothoracic fasc ia.
