RESUMO
A 23-year-old-male student, never-smoker presented to our hospital outpatient department with complaints of loss of appetite, unintentional weight loss, fatigue and low-grade fever for two months, hoarseness of voice (HOV) for two weeks. He was evaluated for HOV with video laryngoscopy which demonstrated left vocal cord palsy. Contrast enhanced CT Chest (CECT) was performed for evaluation of mediastinal lesions which revealed multiple peripheral enhancing conglomerate mediastinal lymph nodes. EBUS-trans bronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) and endobronchial biopsy were performed and specimens sent for smear and culture for AFB, Xpert MTB/RIF assay and histopathology. Results were consistent with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection and culture was positive for M. tuberculosis complex. Patient had been started on anti tubercular therapy (ATT) and during his 4th month follow up he showed clinicoradiological improvement without recovery of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy.
