[Characteristics of the x-ray picture of pulmonary tuberculosis in alcoholics].
Tuberculosis prevalence among alcoholics is high, and pathomorphological and clinical manifestations of the disease are marked. Altogether 84 chronic alcoholics with pulmonary tuberculosis (the 1st group) and 100 tuberculosis non-alcoholic patients (100 controls--the 2nd group) were investigated. X-ray signs of the disease progression, more prevalent changes and more frequent multiple disintegration cavity of larger size are noted in the 1st group. During x-ray investigation of such patients emphasis must be laid on a search for disintegration cavities and bronchogenic dissemination.
