Pulmonary aspergillosis is a rather uncommon disease as a saprophytic infection, mostly producing significant repeated hemoptysis and frequently combined with chronic debilitating disease or cavitary lung disease such as pulmonary tuberculosis, lung abscess and bronchiectasis. Evaluation of the characteristic symptom, X-ray finding composing intracavitary fungus ball with crescent air patch and immunologic test constitute essential part of diagnosis. Surgical resection is a successful treatment combined with administration of anti-fungal agent to eradicate completely. We present one case of surgically removed pulmonary aspergillosis showing fungus ball, superimposed on underlying pulmonary tuberculosis, with review of the related literatures.

Purpose: A descriptive study was conducted to examine the relationship of illness perception, self-efficacy, and self-care of patients who were diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods: The study was conducted using a convenient sample from two hospitals in Incheon and Seoul. One hundred forty four patients completed a questionnaire which included questions on general characteristics, a Brief Illness Perception Scale, a Self-efficacy Scale and a Self-care Scale. Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson Moment Correlations and stepwise multiple regression analysis. Results: There was a statistically significant positive correlation between illness perception and self-care (r=.335, p=.000) and between self-efficacy and self-care (r=.687, p=.000). Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that among the three variables the most powerful predictor was self-efficacy. Self-efficacy and illness perception were significant factors and accounted for 54.2% of the variance of self care in pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Conclusion: Self-efficacy and illness perception were influencing factors in self care among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Hence further interventional researches are needed that consider these two variables.

Objective : This study was designed to evaluate the treatment effects and the prevention of side effects from antituberculosis drugs by using oriental medicine on a pulmonary tuberculosis patient. Methods : The clinical data was analyzed on a patient with pulmonary tuberculosis whose main symptoms were general weakness, anorexia, weight loss, tachycardia, night sweats, fever, coughing and chest pain. The patient was treated from June 17, 2008 to April 1, 2009, using herbal medicine (Cheongpyebyeolgab-tang) with antituberculosis drugs. Results : After treatment, the symptoms disappeared faster than with western medicine treatment only. Laboratory examinations and radiograph impressions also improved. No side effects of the antituberculosis drugs were noted. Conclusions : This suggests that oriental medicine therapy is effective for pulmonary tuberculosis and prevents the side effects of the antituberculosis drugs.

The purpose of this study is to identify patient and hospital characteristics with pulmonary tuberculosis and to analyze factors which were influencing length of stay and treatment. The Korean National Hospital Discharge In-depth Injury Survey database from 2006 to 2012 was used for analysis. Study subjects were 4,704 patients and analyzed by using frequency, chi-square and logistic regression through using STATA 12.0. To avoid selection bias, we used propensity score matching. Analysis results show that the length of stay and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis was different between insurance types. Patients characteristic(female, comorbidity, admission by outpatient department, medical insurance type) and hospital characteristic(500-999 beds, over 1000 beds) significantly influence length of stay. Admission by outpatient department and over 1000 beds are significantly influence treatment. Based on these findings, it is necessary to clarify between length of stay and treatment outcome by medical aids beneficiaries and audit hospitals follow discharge guidelines in pulmonary tuberculosis patients.
