title: [Incidence and prevalence of chronic pulmonary tuberculosis in the Cîmpulung-Argeş district 1972-1980].
abstract: The study concerns 53 cases of chronic and hyperchronic pulmonary tuberculosis followed over a period of 9 years (1972-1980). These cases are analysed from the viewpoint of the frequency of the disease in relation to age, sex and environment, as well as from the viewpoint of the localization, morphology, and bacteriology of the lesions. References are further made to causes which lead to chronicization of pulmonary tuberculosis starting from the cases in this group. The efficiency of the strictly supervised treatment is evaluated by the dynamics of chronic pulmonary tuberculosis over the 9 year period, as well as problems related to socio-professional rehabilitation of the patients.
