This article, published in the Qatar Medical Journal, discusses a case of tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) with profuse mesothelial cell counts. TPE is typically characterized by a predominance of lymphocytes and a scarcity of mesothelial cells, but in this case, the pleural fluid contained a higher percentage of mesothelial cells. The article presents the case of a 33-year-old male who presented with symptoms of TPE and underwent various tests and procedures to confirm the diagnosis. The presence of elevated mesothelial cells in TPE, although rare, should not exclude the consideration of tuberculosis pathology in patients. [Extracted from the article] |
