Pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by extensive and multiple ground-glass opacity diagnosed by metagenomic next-generation sequencing in a patient with normal immune function: A case report
2023-07-10
Abstract excerpt
A 53-year-old immune-competent female presented with atypical pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) imaging complicated by extensive and multiple clear boundary ground-glass opacity (GGO) in both lungs. Conventional diagnostic methods for infectious or non-infectious causes failed to identify the etiology. To further detect the accurate pathogen, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for metagenomic next-genera...
