==Airway Lesions==
<!--
<!--
Tuberculomas can be solitary or multiple and range in diameter from 0.5 to 4.0 cm or greater. Typically, they are smooth or sharply defined, although rarely the margin may be hazy or indis- tinct. Satellite lesions are seen in up to 80% of cases. Calcification is found in 20%–30% of tu- berculomas and is usually nodular and diffuse (12) (Fig 1).
Residual thin-walled cavities may be seen in both active and inactive disease. After antituber- culous chemotherapy, the tuberculous cavity may disappear; occasionally, the wall becomes paper-thin and an air-filled cystic space remains (8). Serial imaging helps determine the stability or activity of pulmonary disease. The wall of a chronic cavity varies from 1 cm to less than 1 mm in thickness and may be smooth, sometimes simulating an emphysematous bulla (Fig 2). It can be difficult to distinguish true cavities from bullae, cysts, or pneumatoceles (10).
