Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a medical and social problem, particularly in developing countries. Early diagnosis and treatment is important. Chest radiography is usually the first diagnostic tool when there is a suspicion of pulmonary TB. A computed tomography (CT) scan provides more accurate information on the extent and distribution of pulmonary TB. We present here a young, immunocompetent male patient with unusual imaging findings for pulmonary TB. We discuss the clinical presentation and management.
肺结核是一个医学和社会问题，在发展中国家尤为如此。早期诊断和治疗很重要。当怀疑有肺结核时，胸部X线摄影通常是首要的诊断工具。计算机断层扫描（CT）能提供关于肺结核范围和分布的更准确信息。我们在此介绍一位年轻、免疫功能正常的男性患者，其肺结核的影像学表现不寻常。我们讨论了临床表现和治疗方法。
