  • Title: Endobronchial tuberculosis simulating lung cancer.
    Author: Guleria R, Gupta R, Pande JN.
    Journal: Indian J Chest Dis Allied Sci; 1997; 39(4):251-4. PubMed ID: 9654822.
    Abstract:
    We describe an atypical presentation of endobronchial tuberculosis in a 45-year-old female who presented to us with a non-resolving pneumonia. Her radiological examination including contrast enhanced CT-scan suggested a diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma or adenoma. Gross bronchoscopic finding also favoured malignancy. But her bronchoscopic biopsy revealed caseating granulomatic lesion. She responded to antitubercular treatment.
