SARS-CoV-2 coinfection in children with severe airway obstruction due to pulmonary tuberculosis.
Introduction: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic had a significant impact on tuberculosis (TB) control globally, with the number of new TB diagnoses decreasing. Coinfection with some viruses, especially measles, could aggravate TB in children. This is presumably a result of depressed cellular immunity. Reports on children with TB and SARS-CoV-2 coinfection are limited.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of children up to 13 years old admitted to Tygerberg Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa, from March 2020 to December 2022 with suspected TB-induced airway compression requiring bronchoscopy. Children were included if they presented with severe intrathoracic airway obstruction and/or radiographic evidence of complicated TB. The patients were divided into two groups based on SARS-CoV-2 respiratory polymerase chain reaction results. Demographics, TB exposure, microbiology, SARS-CoV-2 laboratory data, imaging, inflammatory cytokine levels, and bronchoscopy data were collected. Statistical analyses compared SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative groups.
Results: Of the 50 children undergoing bronchoscopy for TB airway obstruction, 7 (14%) were SARS-CoV-2 positive. Cough was more prevalent in the SARS-CoV-2 positive group (p = 0.04). There was no difference in TB culture yield between groups. However, SARS-CoV-2 positive children showed slower radiological improvement at 1 month (p = 0.01), pleural effusions (p < 0.001), and a higher need for endoscopic enucleation (p < 0.001). FDG PET/CT scans indicated an ongoing inflammation in the SARS-CoV-2 positive group.
Conclusions: Coinfection with SARS-CoV-2 in children with TB airway obstruction appears to complicate the disease course, necessitating more medical interventions and demonstrating a longer duration of the TB inflammatory process. Further research is needed to understand the impact of viral infections on TB progression and outcomes in pediatric patients.
期刊介绍：
Pediatric Pulmonology (PPUL) is the foremost global journal studying the respiratory system in disease and in health as it develops from intrauterine life though adolescence to adulthood. Combining explicit and informative analysis of clinical as well as basic scientific research, PPUL provides a look at the many facets of respiratory system disorders in infants and children, ranging from pathological anatomy, developmental issues, and pathophysiology to infectious disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, and airborne toxins. Focused attention is given to the reporting of diagnostic and therapeutic methods for neonates, preschool children, and adolescents, the enduring effects of childhood respiratory diseases, and newly described infectious diseases.
PPUL concentrates on subject matters of crucial interest to specialists preparing for the Pediatric Subspecialty Examinations in the United States and other countries. With its attentive coverage and extensive clinical data, this journal is a principle source for pediatricians in practice and in training and a must have for all pediatric pulmonologists.
