Abstract

Patients with pulmonary tuberculosis are subject to non-tuberculosis pulmonary lesions e.g. inhalational diseases notably silicosis, bronchial asthma or malignant neoplasms may often co-exist with pulmonary tuberculosis and may sometime be of greater concern to the patients than tuberculosis. Because of the comparatively rare coincidence with pulmonary tuberculosis cases of Kartagener’s syndrome, situs inversus, multiple cysts in lung, pulmonary aspergillosis and primary thoracic neuroblastoma with pulmonary tuberculosis (sputum positive) amongst the patients attending District Tuberculosis Centre, Bikaner, are being reported here.
