    Abstract:
    Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the treatable diseases rarely causing Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF). Hypoxic respiratory failure is often fatal in miliary tuberculosis and acute tuberculous bronchopneumonia. We describe two patients of tuberculous pneumonia with ARF who were successfully treated with early appropriate anti-tuberculosis therapy.
