[Diagnostic problems in a 7-month-old boy with tubercular lobitis]
Abstract
A 7-month child with pulmonary tuberculosis infection involving the whole right upper lobe is described. He was referred to us after diagnosis of recurrent asthmatic bronchitis. In spite of the severity of bronchopulmonary involvement, the outcome was good after 5 months of antitubercular chemotherapy.
