An enameler with dysphagia was found to have extrinsic compression of the esophagus by enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes. Scalene lymph node biopsy revealed silicosis, and tissue cultures grew Mycobacterium intracellulare. We believe our patient is the first reported to have dysphagia due to silicotic adenopathy complicated by an atypical mycobacteriosis.
一名患有吞咽困难的珐琅工人被发现食管受到肿大的纵隔淋巴结的外部压迫。斜角肌淋巴结活检显示有矽肺,组织培养长出胞内分枝杆菌。我们认为我们的患者是首例因矽肺淋巴结病并发非典型分枝杆菌病而出现吞咽困难的报告病例。
