Fulminant miliary tuberculosis with adult respiratory distress syndrome undiagnosed until autopsy: a report of 2 cases and review of the literature.

Despite an overall decline in the incidence of tuberculosis (TB), the percentage of cases representing miliary TB has remained stable. We report 2 cases of fatal miliary TB that remained unrecognized until autopsy, occurring within a 6-month period at 1 Detroit institution. These cases represent the wide range of presentation of miliary TB, from an acute fulminant course to a cryptic prolonged course with subtle clinical findings. Both cases shared a common end point with the development of adult respiratory distress syndrome.
