title: [Indications and results of surgical treatment of the post-tuberculosis syndrome].
abstract: The post-tuberculous syndromes are more numerous and more severe following the present treatments with tuberculostatics, as compared with the past. Indications of the surgical treatment of these syndromes should be aimed at obtaining functional recovery, and they must be always adapted according to the patient's requirements. The results depend on the indications, on the technical performance, on the post-operative treatment (medical physical exercises, etc.). In the surgical treatment of the present post-tuberculous syndrome there is a supplementary risk, as compared with the surgical treatment of the evolutive tuberculosis. Prophylaxis of the post-tuberculous syndrome can be achieved by a correct medical treatment. If this is not successful the surgical treatment will be applied at the optimal time.
