Global Report 2014 estimated that 3.5% newly diagnosed 20.5% previously treated.TB cases had MDR-TB. It 480,000 emerged 210,000...
A 27-year-old female presented with the complaints of dry cough, low grade fever for one year and nodular skin lesions six months.Past history revealed that she was treated multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) (moxifloxacin 400mg, cycloserine 500mg, ethionamide pyrazinamide 1500mg, combutol 800mg injection kanamycin 0.75g daily) months.The MDR-TB confirmed on GeneXpert report bronchoalveolar lavage fluid showed Mycobacterium rifampicin resistance.However, there no response even after...
Endobronchial tuberculosis (TB) or tracheobronchial TB is defined as tuberculous infection of the tree with microbial and histopathological evidence. Here, in this article, we are reporting four surprising cases endobronchial which came to our institution clinical symptoms signs suggestive but chest X-rays were within normal limit sputum microscopies repeatedly negative. Bronchoscopy was performed showed lesions. Hence, early diagnosis treatment possible for these patients.
Aim: To compare prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in metabolic syndrome (MetS) patients and age, sex-matched controls without MetS. Materials & Methods: A total 50 MetS (as per IDF criteria) a 100 age individuals were enrolled the study as cases controls. Screening for OSA was done using Berlin Questionnaire. ascertained by polysomnography. Apnea-Hypopnea index (AHI) 5-15, 16-30 >30 considered mild, moderate severe OSA. Data analyzed Chi-square Independent sample t-tests....
Sarcoidosis, a multisystem disorder of unknown cause, is characterized by the presence non-caseating granulomas and proliferation epithelioid cells. Sarcoidosis mostly affects lungs mediastinal lymph nodes in 90% cases. Caseation necrosis are very rare. We report present case view its rarity, as sarcoidosis with significant rare phenomenon can mislead treating physician into diagnosing it tuberculosis, which lead to exposure patient undue side effects anti-tubercular drugs.
