title: [Pulmonary tuberculosis in prisoners in corrective work institutions].
abstract: Respiratory tuberculosis course was followed up in 374 prisoners. They were all citizens of the Sverdlovsk region, for the most part males with a poor educational, occupational and social status. One third of the prisoners got infected within 1-5 years of their term. In half of the rest subjects the disease was detected within years 1-3 after the release. In spite of frequent cases of severe infection, persistent combined therapy led to the patients cure in most of the patients. The rejection of systematic treatment often aggravated respiratory tuberculosis course.
