[Acute disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis at the present time].
During the period from 1968 to 1987, 50 children, adolescent and adult patients with acute disseminated tuberculosis of the lung were examined in a Republican Tuberculosis Hospital. It was concluded that the number of patients with that form of tuberculosis increased within the last 10 years and the classic form of acute disseminated tuberculosis undergone reversion. The onset and process of such tuberculosis were acute and had the classic characteristics in the children. In the adults, they were observed less frequent. The onset of the disease and its signs in the adults were rarely pronounced. The x-ray picture was typical in all the cases. Children under 5 years from tuberculous infection foci with defective vaccination or not vaccinated at all predominated among the patients. It was demonstrated that in all the age groups the central nervous system was the most frequent localization site of acute disseminated tuberculosis. In the majority of the patients the disease detection was late and the outcomes were severe.
