7. A CASE STUDY OF AIRWAY STENOSIS DUE TO ISONIAZIDAND LEVOFLOXACIN-RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS IN NATIONAL LUNG HOSPITAL, 2023
Main Article Content
Abstract
We report a case of Endobronchial Tuberculosis in a 17-year-old female patient with drug resistance to Isoniazid, Levofloxacin (INH, Lfx). The diagnosis was based on computerizedtomography, bronchoscopy and culture. This is a case of late diagnosis, with symptoms similar to other respiratory diseases. The patient had good clinical response tomedical treatment.
