title: [Clinical and patho-morphological evaluation of patients dying from bronchial asthma].
abstract: Mortality from asthma within 1978-1987 was analysed retrospectively. This analysis included selected factors determining the mortality in this disease. Some conditions being able to decrease death risk in asthmatic patients were defined. The results of autopsies of patients who died from asthma were also analysed with an attempt to interpret those results basing on the selected clinical data. Unified scheme of sampling for pathomorphological examinations was proposed together with proper interpretation of histopathologies in the lungs and myocardium. Presented data are preliminary and will be continued in foreseen prospective studies.
