Chest radiographic appearance of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) positive patients was reviewed. A study group of 50 HIV +ve cases and a control group of 100 HIV -ve cases were analysed. The chest radiographs of HIV seropositive group showed significantly higher incidence of thoracic lymphadenopathy (36% vs 8%, P<.001), pleural effusion (28% vs 10%, P<.01) and miliary pattern (12% vs 2%, P<.05) as compared to the seronegative group. Cavitation was less common in the seropositive group (8% vs 35%, P<.001) than the seronegative group. Upper zone involvement was significantly less common in the study group (38% vs 77%, P<.001) as compared to the control group.
对人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)阳性患者肺结核(TB)的胸部X线表现进行了回顾。分析了一个由50例HIV阳性病例组成的研究组和一个由100例HIV阴性病例组成的对照组。与血清阴性组相比,HIV血清阳性组的胸部X线片显示胸内淋巴结肿大(36%对8%,P<0.001)、胸腔积液(28%对10%,P<0.01)和粟粒样表现(12%对2%,P<0.05)的发生率显著更高。血清阳性组的空洞形成(8%对35%,P<0.001)比血清阴性组少见。与对照组相比,研究组上叶受累明显少见(38%对77%,P<0.001)。
