,,, and mediastinal shift toward the fibrotic lung. Tuberculosis is al- most always present in the opposite upper lobe (8,16). A nonspecific radiologic pattern of fibrosis consisting of parenchymal bands, fibrotic nodules and cavities, or traction bronchiectasis is occa- sionally encountered (Fig 3). Apical pleural thick- ening associated with fibrosis may reveal prolif- eration of extrapleural fatty tissue and peripheral atelectasis at CT (17) (Fig 4).
Complete destruction of a whole lung or a ma- jor part of a lung is not uncommon in the end stages of tuberculosis (Fig 5). Such damage re- sults from a combination of parenchymal and air- way involvement. It may result from a progressive primary infection or from postprimary tuberculo- sis with a prolonged process of cavitation, spread to new areas, and subsequent fibrosis (12). Sec- ondary pyogenic or fungal infection may super- vene. Once the lung is destroyed, the activity of tuberculosis is difficult to assess with radiologic studies (10).

Parenchymal lesions

  • Tuberculoma
  • Single or multiple lesions of > 0.5 cm
  • May occur in primary or secundary TB
  • Main finding on Chest X-ray in 5% cases of secondary TB[1]
  • Results from the surrounding of M. tuberculosis with inflammatory or connective tissue.[2][3][1]
  • The center of the tuberculoma is often necrotic
  • Satellite lesions (80%)
  • Nodular or diffused calcifications in 20-30% cases[2]
  • Thin-walled cavity
  • Present in active and inactive disease
  • May regress after treatment
  • Air-filled sect may persist[4]
  • May be misidentified as an emphysematous bulla or pneumatocelle.
  • Cicatrization:
  • Common in secondary TB
  • Marked fibrosis in ≤40% of secondary TB cases, which may present as:
  • Upper love atelectasis
  • Compensatory hyperinflation of the lower lobe
  • Hilar retraction
  • Mediastinal shift
  • Unspecific X-Ray findings:[5]
  • Parenchymal bands
  • Fibrotic cavities
  • Fibrotic nodules
  • Traction bronchiectasis
  • Lung Destruction:[5]
  • Common in end-stage of TB
  • Involvement of the airways and parenchyma
  • May follow primary TB or secondary TB
  • Spreads across the lung with cavitation and fibrosis[2]
  • Concomitant infection with bacteria or bacteria may occur
  • Complicates assessment of TB activity in the lung with the X-ray.
  • Mass of hyphae, cell debris and mucus, commonly located in a cavity or bronchus[6][7][8]
  • Previous history of chronic cavitary TB in 25-55% of cases presenting with aspergilloma
  • Frequently courses with hemoptysis (50-90%)
  • X-ray shows a mobile mass ringed by an air shadow
  • CT shows a mobile mass, generally interspaced with air shadows
  • May be calcified
  • Bronchogenic carcinoma[5]
  • May be misinterpreted as TB progression
  • Scar formation in TB may lead to carcinoma
  • May cause reactivation of TB[9][10]

Differential Diagnosis of Infectious Diarrhea

Acute inflammatory diarrhea may be caused by different pathogens. Bellow is a table describing some of these pathogens in terms of transmission and symptoms:[11][12]

Pathogen Transmission Clinical Manifestations
Fever Nausea/Vomiting Abdominal Pain Bloody Stool
Salmonella Foodborne transmission, community-acquired ++ + ++ +
Shigella Community-acquired, person-to-person ++ ++ ++ +
Campylobacter Community-acquired, ingestion of undercooked poultry ++ + ++ +
E. coli (EHEC or EIEC) Foodborne transmission, ingestion of undercooked hamburger meat ± + ++ ++
Clostridium difficile Nosocomial spread, antibiotic use + ± + +
Yersinia Community-aquired, foodborne transmission ++ + ++ +
Entamoeba histolytica Travel to or emigration from tropical regions + ± + ±
Aeromonas Ingestion of contaminated water ++ + ++ +
Plesiomonas Ingestion of contaminated water or undercooked shellfish, travel to tropical regions ± ++ + +
