Five out of ten casesshowed usual miliary shadow of tiny discrete foci of about 2mm, but two showed very large, one verysmall, and two vague nodules. In some cases, nodules of various size were found in the same one case.<BR>All the patients with unusual miliary shadows had underlying diseases.As chest roentgenogram of miliary tuberculosis, especially in patients with underlying diseases, showed unusual findings, careful observation of chest X-ray films, sufficient examinations for acid-fastbacilli, lung biopsy, and liver biopsy are needed in patients suspicious of miliary tuberculosis.
