[Pneumotropic microorganisms in chronic diseases of the respiratory organs and tuberculosis of the lungs].
Species composition and the etiologic role of S. pneumoniae and of bacteria of Haemophilus genus in origination and maintenance of diverse lung pathology were specified and the problem of their carriage in pulmonary tuberculosis patients in the absence of nonspecific infection was investigated. The results of study have confirmed that S. pneumoniae was and still remains one of the most common pathogens of chronic respiratory diseases (55.8% of bacteria was found in sputum and 64.7% in bronchoalveolar lavage and exudate). Serological verification of microorganisms isolated from the sputum by the indirect immunofluorescence method was obtained in 77.4% of the studies. Bacteria of Haemophilus genus were more often isolated together with pneumococcus (15.4%) and were verified serologically in only 31.8% of the cases. Transitory (asymptomatic) carriage was found in 412 pulmonary tuberculosis patients. S. pneumoniae accounted for 62% and Haemophilus for 20%.
