The Anatomic Findings in Cases Simulating Pulmonary Tuberculosis

We present a group of clinical cases with the postmortem findings as recorded in the Department of Pathology at the University of California. The group comprises cases that were considered clinically as pulmonary tuberculosis, but which proved to be nontuberculous. In one of the seven cases, both the clinical and the gross pathologic diagnosis was tuberculosis, but the microscope disclosed another condition. For the clinical findings given, we are indebted to Dr. Esther Rosencrantz of the University of California Service at the San Francisco Tuberculosis Hospital; to Dr. H. I. Wiel of the University of California Medical Service at the San Francisco Hospital, and to Dr. H. W. Allen, Dr. William J. Kerr and Dr. Ernest H.
