Description

Tuberculosis of bronchus, without mention of bacteriological or histological confirmation, refers to a type of tuberculosis that affects the bronchial tubes. This diagnosis is made based on clinical signs and symptoms rather than laboratory confirmation.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term may be used in contexts where confirmation tests are not available or have not been performed. Common variants include colloquial terms that may not be clinically appropriate, so it is important to stick to the glossary term in formal settings. Be cautious of potential confusion with other respiratory conditions.
