[Two cases of bronchial tuberculosis--diagnostic difficulties].
We present two cases of bronchial tuberculosis. The first one, man aged 45, showed diffuse necrotic changes in bronchoscopic picture described histologically as coagulative necrosis. AFB were not found in sputum smear but only in the cultures. The second patient--19-year old female presented the features of right lung bronchopneumonia. Bronchoscopic examinations showed diffused necrotic infiltration. Tuberculosis etiology was confirmed by positive results of examined brosage, concomitantly with negative Mantoux reaction.
