Abstract
Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) remains an important public health problem and one of the main causes of death. Pseudotumoural pulmonary TB is a rare radiological manifestation of pulmonary TB, mimicking lung carcinoma. Herein, we report four immunocompetent adults who presented with large masses and were diagnosed to have parenchymal pseudotumoral tuberculosis, followed at the Pneumology Department of University Hospital Center Mohammed VI of Marrakesh in Morocco between April 2019 and January 2022. five cases were included in the study. All patients initially presented with general and respiratory symptoms, with radiological findings simulating lung carcinoma. Tuberculosis was diagnosed from microbiological testing and/or histological examination results. All patients were immunocompetent. All patients were treated successfully with antimycobacterial therapy.
