[Sequelae of tuberculosis].
Authors relate about some present clinical problems relative to tuberculosis reliquates. Today we run the risk of ignoring either tuberculosis activity or reliquates pathology, mostly since the latent stage of symptoms is often a long time. A careful and repeated clinical and bronchologic study is then necessary to don't make a too easy diagnosis of benign hemoptysis and to don't undervalue diagnosis of scar-cancer. Furthermore, we need remember that tuberculosis reliquates often involve bronchial and vascular structures. There is a frequent forming of peripheral bronchiectasis. At last, the perfusion damage provoked by reliquates can cause an obstructive bronchial alteration with the consequent possible developing asthma.
