[Miliary tuberculosis associated with acute respiratory distress and pancytopenia in HIV-negative patient].

The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rare but serious complication of miliary tuberculosis with a mortality rate near 100% when associated with pancytopenia. This association has been rarely reported (eleven cases in a Medline search, 1966-1999). A case is here reported of an HIV-negative patient with miliary tuberculosis which presented as ARDS associated with pancytopenia. This case prompted us to review the literature and risk factors, diagnosis and treatment issues are discussed. In patients with predisposing factors miliary tuberculosis must be considered as a possible cause of ARDS.
