    Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) presents unique bronchoscopic findings, often resembling colored caves. Early recognition of these signs aids prompt treatment initiation for this common condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Endoscopy

    Background:

    • Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) is a significant form of tuberculosis affecting the airways.
    • It commonly involves the upper lobe bronchi, presenting diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • Bronchoscopic examination revealed characteristic findings in two elderly female patients.
    • These included white gelatinous material, mucosal ulcerations, polypoid inflammation, and narrowed bronchi with post-stenotic dilatation.

    Findings:

    • The observed bronchoscopic features, though distinct, mimic geological formations like colored dolomite caves.
    • Fibreoptic bronchoscopy confirmed EBTB, subsequently validated by positive cultures.

    Implications:

  • Recognizing the clinical, radiological, and bronchoscopic spectrum of EBTB is crucial.
  • This allows for earlier treatment initiation, even before definitive bacteriological diagnosis.
