[Organ-preserving surgery in patients with diffuse fibro-cavernous tuberculosis of the lungs].
Diffuse fibro-cavernous tuberculosis was managed in 44 patients by interventions on the cavern, the bronchi draining it, and the thoracic wall. It is shown that these operations are combined and are organ-preserving in character. The choice of the type of the operation is determined by the character of the affection of the bronchi and the activity of the tuberculous inflammation in the wall of the cavern. The use of modern technical measures (laser, ultrasonics, hemosorption) is promising.
