Abstract
The case of a 57 year old male with Wegener's granulomatosis is reported in whom the course of cyclophosphamide and prednisone treatment a subacute mycobacterial tuberculosis pneumonia evolved. The diagnosis was based on culture of Mycobacterium tuberculosis organisms from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. The authors discuss the role of bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.
