[Causes of delayed detection of pulmonary tuberculosis].
As shown by analysis of 335 case histories, low alertness for tuberculosis among the population and doctors, underestimation of the clinical and anamnestic data, late and inadequate x-ray and bacteriological investigations are responsible for late diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis in primary care institutions. Measures to correct the situation are proposed.
