Abstract

When a patient presents with new pleural effusion, the diagnosis of tuberculous (TB) pleuritis should be considered. The patient is at risk for developing pulmonary or extrapulmonary TB if the diagnosis is not made. Between 3% and 25% of patients with TB will have TB pleuritis. The incidence of TB pleuritis is higher in patients who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive. Pleural fluid is an exudate that usually has a predominance of lymphocytes. The easiest way to diagnose TB pleuritis in a patient with lymphocytic pleural effusion is to demonstrate a pleural fluid adenosine deaminase level above 40 IU/L. The treatment for TB pleuritis is the same as that for pulmonary TB. Tuberculous empyema is a rare occurrence, and the treatment is difficult

Özet

Hasta yeni bir plevral effüzyon ile başvurduğunda tüberküloz plö- rezi tanısı düşünülmelidir. Eğer tanı konulmazsa hasta akciğer veya akciğer dışı tüberküloz gelişmesi riski altındadır. Tüberkülozlu hastaların %3 ila %25i tüberküloz plörezi geçirecektir. Tüberküloz plörezi insidansı HIV pozitif hastalarda daha yüksektir. Plevra sıvısı genellikle lenfosit hakimiyeti olan bir eksüdadır. Lenfositik plevral effüzyonlu bir hastada tüberküloz plörezi tanısı koymanın en kolay yolu 40 U/L üzerinde bir plevra sıvısı adenozin deaminaz seviyesini göstermektir. Tüberküloz plörezi tedavisi akciğer tüberkülozu tedavisiyle aynıdır. Tüberküloz ampiyemi nadir bir oluşumdur ve tedavisi güçtür.
