| Core Tip |
Tracheobronchial tuberculosis (TBTB) is commonly misdiagnosed in clinical practice, especially among senile patients. To identify the determinants of misdiagnosis of TBTB, we systematically compared the clinical features and diagnostic workup between senile patients with TBTB that had been correctly diagnosed and those that had been misdiagnosed. Insufficient or inaccurate radiographic or bronchoscopy assessment was the predominant cause of delayed diagnosis of TBTB. Clinical features like age, gender, occupation, clinical manifestations, or prevalence of comorbid chronic diseases were not related to the misdiagnosis of TBTB. |
