Summary: Atypical mycobacterial infections may give rise to various clinical difficulties. Case reports of six patients--three adult patients with pulmonary lesions, two children with cervical lymphadentis and one patient in whom the atypical mycobacterium appeared to be present as a commensal--illustrate these difficulties. Determination of the significance of the organism and differentiation of condition from tuberculosis and others requires consideration of the clinical picture, the results of skin testing, histologic features and cultural characteristics. Three patients, including the two children, were treated with a combination of surgery and chemotherapy, with satisfactory results. An elderly patient with chronic bronchitis and a pulmonary infection due to M. kansasii was treated successfully with antiuberculosis agents alone. Chemotherapy is being tried on a fifth patient with cavitary disease due to M. intracellulare, but is seems likely that an operation will also be required.  相似文献

Bronchiectasis occurs frequently in association with pulmonary tuberculosis and is caused primarily by tuberculous bronchitis. It is common in all types of tuberculosis, especially in the fibroid lesion stage. It may occur with active tuberculosis and become part of the tuberculous picture. It may also occur with inactive tuberculosis and then present a distinct symptom complex. It is easy to diagnose. It is a relatively benign disease and usually no special treatment is needed; but when it becomes severe, pulmonary resection is the procedure of choice.  相似文献

Newer surgical and anesthetic techniques and the use of streptomycin and para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS) have made possible increased success in pulmonary resection for tuberculosis. Especially in early cases, however, bed rest and pneumothorax or pneumoperitoneum should be given adequate trial before resection is decided upon. In all cases a thorough bronchoscopic examination should be made first and the findings carefully evaluated.Pulmonary resection may be advisable for lesions of certain kinds which do not respond well to thoracotomy; for lesions which have not responded to trial of other methods; for a lung destroyed by tuberculosis; and in cases of active disease in an unexpanded lung.The experience of the author and of others emphasizes the importance of correct postoperative care. Since tuberculosis is rarely limited to the resected area, at least six months'' rest in bed under medical supervision is necessary to permit cure of residual disease. Streptomycin with PAS is particularly valuable in the postoperative period; therefore indiscriminate use of it in earlier treatment should be avoided lest resistance develop.  相似文献

Of all tuberculous patients over 45 years of age admitted to Olive View Sanatorium in the five-year period ended July, 1958, 1.4 per cent had cancer of the lung. This is a much higher incidence than in a comparable segment of the general population.Careful examination of serial roentgenographic studies in all cases of suspected pulmonary lesions was found to increase diagnostic acuity. Scalene node biopsy, cytologic study and bronchoscopy were of less help. Diagnostic thoracotomy was the single most useful procedure for diagnosis.As to operability, the results in patients with both cancer and tuberculosis compared very well with those in patients who had only cancer. Patients who have inactive pulmonary tuberculosis and cancer have much poorer results than patients with active tuberculosis and cancer. There are difficulties in accurately diagnosing cancer in the presence of tuberculosis; and there are special problems in patients with inactive tuberculosis and cancer.  相似文献

Untreated tuberculosis during pregnancy presents a serious risk for transmission of disease to the newborn and can result in adverse perinatal and obstetrical outcomes. Tuberculosis during pregnancy and congenital tuberculosis are infrequent conditions and are difficult to diagnose due the non-specificity of the symptoms. A case report is presented of a woman who had no children previously with disseminated miliary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis symptoms appeared immediately after birth of the first child, with a clinical diagnosis on the second month after childbirth, whereupon the patient died. The son, a premature infant, showed disease symptoms from the first day, with primary pulmonary complex and persistent atelectasis due to bronchial obstruction. The obstruction was due to thoracic lymphadenitis and coinfection with cytomegalovirus. The infant received standard treatment and his condition improved.  相似文献

Forty-one men between the ages of 50 and 60 from the indigent population in Montreal have been studied during two winters. Clinical evaluation, completion of a respiratory questionnaire, electrocardiograms, plain chest radiographs and full chest tomograms, and a battery of pulmonary function tests were completed on each.No difference in pulmonary function could be demonstrated among nine men who gave no history of chronic bronchitis and 14 who gave positive answers to the same questionnaire.Five who had had dusty occupations in the past had more evidence of function impairment than men not exposed to this hazard.Thirteen were found to have complicating disease; two had active tuberculosis, one a mediastinal tumour, and the remaining 10 various forms of heart disease.Considering the group as a whole, only 18 (44%) had no objective evidence of any organic disease.  相似文献

The diagnosis of skeletal tuberculosis in human remains has traditionally been based upon the detection of secondary skeletal lesions which result from hemotogenous dissemination of tubercle bacilli (e.g., Pott's disease). Since such lesions develop in less than 7% of cases of human tuberculosis, the paleodemography and paleoepidemiology of this disease have been difficult to assess from skeletal remains. This study presents a new diagnostic approach to tuberculosis, focusing on the skeletal manifestations of chronic pulmonary disease (which comprises approximately 90% of human-form tuberculosis). Four hundred forty-five skeletal remains from persons dying of tuberculosis during the first half of the 20th century were examined. A total of 70/445 (16%) exhibited skeletal lesions in one or more locations as a response to infection. Of these 70, 39 (56%) were found to display a specific set of lesions restricted to the internal aspect of the ribs. These lesions take one of two forms: (1) diffuse periostitis or (2) localized abscess, and appear to correspond to areas of chronic pulmonary infection. The diffuse type of rib lesion is more commonly observed than the localized type. In our observations (and according to the natural history of tuberculosis) the occurrence of chronic pulmonary tuberculosis is usually mutually exclusive with hematogenous dissemination to secondary bone locations. Thus, the detection of rib lesions in cases of chronic pulmonary disease increases the absolute sample size of skeletal tuberculosis by a factor of two in this study.  相似文献

A case of a two-year-old boy with multiple subcutaneous lesions caused by Basidiobolus haptosporus is presented.The child had also a non-toxic familial goiter and clinical and radiological features of a pulmonary illness. The pulmonary manifestations only disappeared with the treatment with potassium iodide. The authors think that the pulmonary lesions must have arisen by direct spread of the fungus from the subcutaneous lesions of the chest.  相似文献

The aetiological aspects of exhumed remains from two burial sites were examined using 1839 and 1879 as years of comparison. We tried to discover whether the sample of recovered remains was representative of those buried. The state of the remains varied according to the type of soil and coffin material in which they were buried. At the earlier date most deaths were caused by infectious lesions rather than degenerative ones and 76% of those who died were below employable age—whereas in 1879 the commonest causes of death were tuberculosis (“phthisis”) and bronchitis, and 42% died before they could be employed. The registration of deaths were recorded more accurately at the later date, and it was easier to build up a picture of the age, sex, and occupation of the people who died.  相似文献

Plain chest radiography plays a major role in the diagnosis and follow-up of pulmonary tuberculosis in childhood. The aim of our study was to investigate the distribution of characteristic chest radiographic findings at diagnosis in children with pulmonary tuberculosis. The age of the patients and the type and localization of radiographic changes at admission were retrospectively analyzed. We reviewed chest radiographs in 204 children admitted from January 1, 1991 until June 30, 1994 for newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis. Mean age +/- SD was 6.4 +/- 4.2 years (range 0-14). The most common lesion was lymphadenopathy (found in 172 children, 84.3%). It was significantly more common in the youngest age group (0-4 years) and was more significantly present in the right hilo-mediastinal region. Parenchymal changes were found in 125 children (61.3%). They were also significantly more common in the young age group and in the right lung. Other less common lesions included pleuritis, atelectasis, destructive-cavitary lesions and miliary dissemination. In conclusion, the leading radiographic finding in pulmonary tuberculosis in childhood remains hilar lymphadenopathy, but parenchymal changes are clearly strongly present, and should be sought and appreciated in the diagnostic work-up for pulmonary tuberculosis in childhood.  相似文献

A study was carried out on 11 169 matched case-control pairs of children aged up to 15 years included in the Oxford Survey of Childhood Cancers to see whether an association exists between cancer in children and drugs given to their mothers during pregnancy. The mothers of children who developed cancer reported about 25% more illnesses during pregnancy than mothers of healthy control children. Two specific illnesses, pulmonary tuberculosis and epilepsy, were investigated. For these there was a higher than average case-control excess of reports and there had been a suggestion that the drugs used in treatment, isoniazid and phenytoin, might be carcinogenic. The results of this investigation provide no real evidence for any association between the drugs taken by the mothers during pregnancy and subsequent cancer in the child.  相似文献

The term chronic bronchitis has been criticised because it is associated with hypersecretion of mucus rather than bronchial inflammation. This study was designed to establish the presence or absence of clinical chronic bronchitis and measure pulmonary function in 45 patients about to undergo resection of the lung. The condition in the cartilaginous and small airways and the severity of the emphysema were then measured in the resected specimen. The results from 20 patients who had clinical chronic bronchitis were compared with those in 25 patients who did not. The data show that patients with chronic bronchitis had greater inflammation (a) on mucosal surfaces (p less than 0.05) of all bronchi larger than 2 mm luminal diameter and (b) around glands (p less than 0.005) and gland ducts (p less than 0.05) in bronchi larger than 4 mm diameter. A variable degree of inflammation was present in the submucosa of smaller bronchi. The groups had equivalent proportions of mucous glands and Reid''s indices in central airways, and no differences were noted in measurements of pulmonary function, condition of small airways, or emphysema. These data show that the term chronic bronchitis is justified by inflammation of cartilaginous airways and suggest that this abnormality may be the cause of the chronic productive cough.  相似文献

Introduction

To understand better the risk of tuberculosis transmission with increasing delay in tuberculosis treatment, we undertook a retrospective cohort study in Shenzhen, China.

Methods

All pulmonary tuberculosis cases in the Shenzhen tuberculosis surveillance database from 1993–2010 were included. Sputum smear positivity and presence of pulmonary cavity were used as proxies for risk of tuberculosis transmission.

Results

Among 48,441pulmonary tuberculosis cases, 70% presented with symptoms of pulmonary TB, 62% were sputum smear positive, and 21% had a pulmonary cavity on chest x-ray. 95.3% of patients self-presented for evaluation of illness after a median 58 days of delay after symptoms began. The proportion presenting sputum smear positive (p<0.001) and with a pulmonary cavity (p<0.001) increased significantly with increasing duration of delay.

Conclusions

Delayed diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis is associated with a significantly increased risk of pulmonary sputum smear positivity and pulmonary cavity. To decrease risk of transmission, treatment delay needs to be reduced further.  相似文献

Multi-drug resistant strains of tuberculosis pose a serious threat in many third- and first-world countries. The aim of this case report is to describe a potential new method for treating those with primary pulmonary tuberculosis using phytochemicals via inhalation. We report the first case of using inhaled phytochemicals in treating primary pulmonary tuberculosis. A 28-year-old female presented with symptoms suggestive of primary pulmonary tuberculosis, and she was found to be positive via chest X-ray and sputum culture. She subsequently underwent treatment with conventional DOTS treatment. Ten days post-inhalation of the phytochemical, the patient is tuberculosis negative (via sputum culture), with no clinical symptoms. This may be a potential new method and type of treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis.  相似文献
