Tuberculous pleurisy is a frequent extrapulmonary manifestation characterized by accumulation of fluid and inflammatory cells in the pleural space. Here, we investigated the mechanisms of T-lymphocyte accumulation in the pleural space by using a murine model of pleurisy induced by Mycobacterium bovis BCG. Intrathoracic (i.t.) injection of BCG (4.5 x 10(5) bacteria/cavity) induced accumulation o...
from nontuberculous effusions by measuring pleural adenosine deaminase (ADA),4’ lysozyme (LZ),6 and interferon-gamma (IFG)7; these biochemical compounds are elevated in tuberculous effusions depending on the size of the effusion, although there is an overlap in the pleural concentrations of ADA and LZ.3 We reasoned that the pleural alkaline phosphatase concentration would be a useful means of d...
Here, we report a case of pleural paragonimiasis that was confused with tuberculous pleurisy. A 38-year-old man complained of a mild febrile sensation and pleuritic chest pain. Radiologic findings showed right pleural effusion with pleural thickening and subpleural consolidation. Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in the pleural effusion was elevated (85.3 IU/L), whereas other examinations for ...
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the use of pleural fluid ADA, cytology, pleural biopsy and Mantoux test in the diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion. This prospective study was conducted on 92 patients December 2011– October 2013 at Government Chest Diseases and Tuberculosis Hospital, Hanamkonda. Diagnostic accuracy of pleural fluid cytology (L/N ratio >0.75) , ADA >40 U/L...
