Discussion :
Tuberculosis. This child has reticulonodular shadows. Thus one must consider a diagnosis of Sarcoidosis, PCP, LIP and tuberculosis in this child. Since HIV is negative and the child does not have hypoxia, LIP and PCP seems unlikely. Sarcoid would present with multisystem involvement. In this child, sputum for AFB was positive and he responded to Anti TB treatment. |
