The unexpected bilateral Tuberculous empyema: a case report in a child
Tuberculous pleurisy is characterised by unilateral exudates with predilection on the right side, whereas bilateral involvement is rarely encountered. A positive history of contact with tuberculous case and a negative Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination scar are usually seen. Here we illustrate a case of
bilateral tuberculous lung empyema in a previously healthy child with a presence of BCG scar and an initial non-existence contact history with tuberculosis patient.
Keywords: Bilateral lung empyema, tuberculous empyema, tuberculous pleurisy
