Endobronchial nocardial infection.

K D McNeil1, D W Johnson, W A Oliver.   

Abstract

The rare presentation of nocardial infection as an endobronchial "tumour" is reported. Haematogenous dissemination occurred after fibreoptic bronchoscopy and biopsy, a phenomenon not previously described in nocardial infections. This case highlights the difficulties in diagnosing pulmonary nocardial infection and the potential for invasive procedures to disseminate the disease.
