Abstract

Endobronchial tuberculosis is one of the serious complications and causes of morbidity in tuberculosis infection. Bronchoscopy was performed in a patient receiving chemotherapy for lymphoblastic lymphoma because of persistent atelectasis in the lingular segment. No pathological finding was observed except for a purulent secretion at the entrance of left main bronchus. There was no regression in atelectasis despite shrinkage of the mass after one year chemotherapy. Control bronchoscopy was repeated for this reason and an endobronchial lesion was found in the lingula. Histopathological examination was compatible with tuberculosis. The etiology of endobronchial tuberculosis with immune suppression and lymphoma and the importance of bronchoscopy for diagnosis and treatment was discussed by a review of the literature.

Özet

Endobronşiyal tüberküloz, tüberküloz enfeksiyonunun ender görülen komplikasyon ve morbidite nedenlerindendir. Lenfoblastik lenfoma tanısı ile kemoterapi alan hastaya, lingulada sebat eden atelektazi nedeniyle bronkoskopi yapıldı. Sol ana bronşda pürülan sekresyon dışında patoloji saptanmadı. Bir yıl süre ile kemoterapi alan hastanın kitlesinde küçülme olmasına rağmen atelektezide gerileme olmadı. Bu nedenle bronkoskopi tekrarlandı, sol akciğer lingular segment girişinde endobronşiyal lezyon saptandı. Lezyonun histopatolojik incelemesi tüberküloz ile uyumlu bulundu. Endobronşiyal tüberkülozun etiyolojisinde, immün sistem süpresyonu ve lenfomanın yeri, tanı ve tedavide bronkoskopinin önemi literatür bilgileri eşliğinde tartışılmıştır.
