title: [Pulmonectomy in tuberculosis surgery].
abstract: The results of surgical treatment of 550 patients who were subjected to pulmonectomy for tuberculosis (74.7%) and other respiratory diseases (25.3%) were analysed. Pulmonectomy was either used as an emergency procedure or performed after a short-term intensive preparation depending on the severity of the clinical picture and life-threatening syndrome. New surgical tactics consisting of stage-by-stage and combined surgical interventions has been developed and is used in clinical practice. Pulmonectomy which is performed at the stage of the clinical stabilization of the process is the most effective. Despite high surgical risk, pulmonectomy in progressive and complicated tuberculosis provides clinical effectiveness in 76.9-83.7% of patients.
