Tuberculous pleural effusions occur in up to 30% of patients with tuberculosis. It appears that the percentage of patients with pleural effusion is comparable in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive and HIV-negative individuals, although there is some evidence that HIV-positive patients with CD4+ counts <200 cells x mL(-1) are less likely to ...

Pleural tuberculosis: an update
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2010Pleural tuberculosis accounts for fewer than 1% of all exudative effusions in western countries, occurring in only 3-5% of tuberculous patients. However, in developing countries like India, it is responsible for 30-80% of all pleural effusions encountered and may complicate tuberculosis in 31% of all cases.

Pleural Pustule—a Novel Thoracoscopic Appearance of Pleural Tuberculosis
Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2022Background: Thoracoscopic pleural biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing tubercular pleural effusion (TPE). Various thoracoscopic appearances like sago grain nodules, caseous necrosis, and adhesions have been described in TPE. However, none of these have high specificity for diagnosing TPE. In this study we evaluate a novel

Background The imaging features of pleural tuberculosis (PTB) can be similar to those of malignant pleural dissemination (MPD) with several case reports of CT findings in atypical presentations of PTB. Purpose To describe the computed tomography (CT) features of PTB by comparing these imaging findings with those of MPD and to use the results to ...
