B, C Hematoxylin and eosin and acid-fast stained lung sections revealed granulomatous inflammation with the presence of acid-fast bacilli. D FDG-PET/CT showed intense FDG hypermetabolism at bilateral lungs, especially LUL (SUVmax, 12.3) and multiple hot areas at bilateral mediastinal nodes (SUVmax, 8.6), bilateral supraclavicular regions (SUVmax, 4.9), right mesenteric region (SUVmax, 8.9) and left para-sternal node (SUVmax, 3.1). FDG PET-CT, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography; SUVmax, maximum standardized uptake value
