Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) is a rare manifestation of pulmonary characterized by bronchial inflammation, often presenting with tumor-like masses in the airways. Misdiagnosis, particularly as lung cancer or asthma, common due to its atypical presentation. We present case 38-year-old female persistent cough, wheezing, and constitutional symptoms, initially misdiagnosed community-acquired pneumonia. Despite broad-spectrum antibiotics, there was no improvement. Imaging revealed right...
Non-resolving or slowly resolving pneumonia presents a significant diagnostic challenge, characterized by persistent radiographic abnormalities despite appropriate antibiotic therapy. This study explores the pivotal role of Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy (FOB) in diagnosing and managing non-resolving pneumonia. Through detailed case presentations, illustrates how FOB facilitates precise sampling identification underlying causes such as malignancies, infections, other pulmonary conditions. FOB's...
Invasive fungal infections are a significant concern for solid organ transplant (SOT) patients, especially those who have undergone small bowel or lung transplants. Renal recipients commonly develop like candidiasis, aspergillosis, and cryptococcosis, contributing to post-transplant infections. This case series presents three cases of pulmonary after renal transplantation: mucormycosis, invasive aspergillosis. The objective is highlight challenges in diagnosing managing SOT recipients,...
