Pulmonary tuberculosis apparently caused by the avian tubercle bacillus.

O T CHEUNG, H KONST.   

Abstract

Avian tubercle bacilli were repeatedly isolated from the sputum of a 65-year-old man who had cavitary disease in the upper lobe of the right lung. The clinical picture resembled that of pulmonary tuberculosis caused by the human type of tubercle bacilli, but the response to antituberculosis chemotherapy was unsatisfactory and the patient's sputum remained positive. The bacilli were markedly pathogenic to chickens and rabbits but failed to produce progressive disease in guinea pigs. This is in accord with the properties of tubercle bacilli of the avian type.
