Multimodality management of extensive tuberculous bullous disease of lung with bilateral pneumothorax.

Diffuse bullous disease of the lung in miliary tuberculosis associated with bilateral pneumothorax is a rare entity with grave prognosis. We describe the case of a 24-year-old woman in her first trimester of pregnancy with extensive bilateral pulmonary infiltrates as seen on computed tomographic scan of the lung. She had simultaneous bilateral pneumothorax that was managed with antituberculous therapy, steroids, and surgery for failure of lung expansion.
