[Pseudo tumoral bronchial tuberculosis].
Bronchial lesion is a rare site for tuberculosis. It can mimic lung cancer especially when sputum- smear is negative, and this be a cause of a delay in diagnosis, that can be made later on by a culture of Koch bacillus or after a bronchial biopsy. Through these 4 cases reports, the authors recall the ethiopathogenic hypotheses of this lesion and review the radiologic, clinical and prognostic features of these unusual forms of TB.
