Abstract

We report a 2-year-old, previously healthy boy, who presented with chronic pneumonia. He was diagnosed with culture-confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis. Complications included spontaneous pneumothorax presumed to be secondary to cavity formation and complete subsegmental airway obstruction that did not resolve with prolonged oral corticosteroid treatment.
