Abstract
The objective: to compare clinical and radiological characteristics of tuberculous pleural lesions in HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients.
Subjects and Methods. The article analyzes and compares tuberculous pleural lesions in 53 HIV-negative patients and 104 HIV-positive patients.
Results. Manifestations of tuberculous pleural lesions in HIV-positive patients were characterized by a longer history before seeking medical care, pronounced clinical signs and abnormal blood parameters. Tuberculous lesions were localized only in the pleura in 64.2% of HIV-negative patients and 44.2% of HIV-positive patients. Pleurisy in HIV-positive case was often comorbid with dissemination to the lungs.
