title: [Cavernoscopy in patients with disseminated fibrous-cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis].
abstract: A technique of a dynamic cavernoscopy permitting one to conduct diagnostic and therapeutic manipulations for several months has been suggested. The given procedure was conducted in 36 patients with disseminated fibrous-cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis. An important role in defining management tactics belongs to the direct bacteriological and histological examination of the cavern contents. Local treatment by means of antituberculous drug solution instillation was administered in 29 patients. A positive effect was registered in 26 cases. The above technique can be used for the process prognosis and the treatment modification.
