Abstract:
We report nine cases of elderly French patients (more than 65 years old) with bronchial tuberculosis. We report the clinical features, radiological and endoscopic aspects. The symptoms are non specific and may delay the diagnostic. The chest X-ray and endoscopic aspects are tumor like. Retractile bronchial stenosis is a potential evolution.
