title: [Endobronchial tuberculosis].
abstract: Eight hospitalized patients with endobronchial tuberculosis are reported. Diagnosis was reached in six patients by the demonstration of acid-alcohol resistant bacilli in the bronchial aspirate. In the fifth patient microscopic examination of the bacteria in the liquid obtained by aspiration of a paraspinal abscess was positive. In the last patient diagnosis was established by the positive growth in Lowenstein's medium of lymph node extracts. The clinical, radiologic, endoscopic and microbiologic features are discussed.
