Abstract
Disseminated tuberculosis (TB) is a life-threatening disease resulting from the hematogenous spread of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Miliary pattern on chest radiography is a common finding that has an important role in the early detection of the disease. Chest radiography and tuberculin test are not contributing in the diagnosis.
