[The immunological aspects of metatuberculous pneumosclerosis].
It was found that a relationship exists between x-ray changes in the lungs, levels of IgG, IgM, IgA, antibodies counts in tuberculin enzyme immunoassay, circulating immune complexes (CIC), heterophilic antibodies and metatuberculous pneumosclerosis in patients with a history of active tuberculosis. A direct relationship was established between the advance of metatuberculous pneumosclerosis and CIC levels. The latter clearly reflect basic immunological mechanisms of fibrogenesis.
