[Effect of inhalatory therapy with antibacterial preparations on the fungal-yeastlike flora of the respiratory tracts in pulmonary tuberculosis].
A total of 254 patients with various forms of the lung tuberculosis were examined on the presence of the yeast-like flora; 130 patients out of them (the main group) were subjected to complex antibacterial therapy including inhalation with antitubercle drugs and 124 patients (control) were not treated with inhalation. On acceptance to the stationary the fungal flora was registered in 22.4% of the patients including 20.9% of the males and 29.2% of the females. The fungi were found more often in old patients (33.3%), patients with diseases of long duration (29.7%) and patients with fibrous cavernous tuberculosis of the lungs (27.1%). It was shown that the local treatment of the patients suffering from the lung tuberculosis with antitubercle drugs including streptomycin had no significant effect on either the period of the fungi carrying (22.3% before the treatment and 21.5% after the treatment, P less than 0.05), or development of the fungal diseases (1.9% in the main group and 1.6% in the control group, P greater than 0.05).
