case_images: Pathology showed chronic inflammation with granulomas (Figure 1A and B). Puncture revealed granulomatous inflammation in the left cervical lymph nodes and acid-fast staining was positive (Figure 1C and D). Pathological examination of the bronchial biopsy sample revealed many acid-fast stain positive bacteria (Figure 1E and F).

case_images: A chest CT scan revealed a nodular lesion in the right main bronchus (Figure 2A). An abdominal CT scan revealed a mass in the right lower abdomen (Figure 2B). Bronchoscopy was performed, which revealed mucosal infiltrate and blockage of the upper left and lower right bronchus (Figure 2C). After five months of treatment, bronchoscopy showed a narrowing of the nodule in the right bronchus (Figure 2D).
