Tuberculosis is a disease that can mostly be diagnosed, and may involve all organs; however also may frequently mimic other disease of the involved organs and sometimes causes diagnostic problems. In our case we presented a patient that we thought to be lung cancer, however diagnosed as tuberculosis after the evaluations. We think that in countries with high tuberculosis incidence and prevalence such as our country, tuberculosis should be kept in mind in differential diagnosis in every clinical and radiological feature.
