[Surgical treatment of patients with advanced bilateral destructive pulmonary tuberculosis].
The paper analyzes the outcomes of surgical treatment of 135 patients operated on at the Surgery Clinic of the Institute. A set of surgical techniques, including pulmonectomy, collapsosurgical interventions, local cavernous exposures, thoroscopic surgery, thoracic caustic under artificial pneumothorax, was applied. The used system of surgical treatment was found to be beneficial for these patients, as confirmed by fewer surgical (3.0%) and postoperative (7.8%) complications, lower postoperative mortality rates (2.2%), and steady state clinical recovery in 91% and working capacity restoration in 76%.
