INTRODUÇÃO: O diagnóstico da tuberculose pleural permanece um desafio, pois a sensibilidade dos testes tradicionais é baixa. O exame histopatológico da pleura é o método mais preciso, com até 80% de sensibilidade. A dosagem da adenosina deaminase foi introduzida mais recentemente, mas sua utilidade no diagnóstico da tuberculose pleural no Brasil não foi suficientemente esclarecida. OBJETIVO: Verificar a sensibilidade e a especificidade de um método experimental de dosagem da atividade da adenosina deaminase em uma série de pacientes com derrame pleural investigados entre agosto de 1998 e novembro de 2002 no Rio de Janeiro (RJ). RESULTADOS: De 137 casos, em 111 havia amostras de líquido pleural disponíveis, das quais 83 pertenciam a paciente...
