Pleurisy and Tuberculosis.

Every case of "cured" pleurisy should be closely watched for many months after the patient has been actually ill with the disease. It is probably correct to say that considerably more than half such cases develop tuberculosis years after. indeed, Koster, Landouzy and others consider pleurisy with effusion a symptom of existing, though latent tuberculosis. Koster states (Zeitschr, fur klinische Medizin) that in persons over fifteen years of age tuberculosis develops in at least one half the cases after the occurence of idiopathic pleurisy with effusion.
