Abstract

Background: Approximately 1.8 million of the world’s population is infected with both M.TUBERCULOSIS (TB) and HIV. HIV-SEROPOSITIVE patients with TB may have radiographically atypical presentations.Objectives: This study aimed to determine whether there was any difference in radiological presentation of pulmonary TB between HIV-SEROPOSITIVE and HIV-seronegative patients.Patients and Methods: Information on 204 patients who were admitted with a diagnosis of pulmonary TB to the infectious ward of Razi Hospital, Ahvaz, between 2004 and 2008 was obtained from their records. They were divided into HIV-SEROPOSITIVE and HIV-seronegative groups. All clinical signs and symptoms and radiological findings were extracted from each patient file and recorded in a questionnaire.Results: Normal thoracic radiography, pleural effusion, milliary pattern, and hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy were more common in the HIV-SEROPOSITIVE group. Pulmonary infiltration and cavitary lesions in Chest X-ray (CXR) were more frequent in the HIV-seronegative group. The prevalence of fibrosis in HIV-seronegative patients was higher than in HIV-SEROPOSITIVE subjects.Upper lobe pulmonary involvement in HIV-SEROPOSITIVE patients was less frequent than HIV-seronegative persons due to their immunodeficiency.Conclusions: Radiological presentation of pulmonary TB differs between HIV-SEROPOSITIVE and HIV-seronegative patients due to progressive immunodeficiency from HIV infection.
