[Prevalence of tobacco smoking among phthisio-pulmonological inpatients].
A questionnaire survey of 222 phthisiopulmonological inpatients has indicated that 21.7 of the males and 4.05% of the females are smokers. Among clinical and morphological forms of tuberculosis, fibrocavernous tuberculosis is prevalent in smokers. Tuberculoma and post tuberculous fibrosis of varying severity are common in never smokers. Smokers are at high risk for lung cancer and at less risk for sarcoidosis with the equal incidence of chronic obstructive lung disease. The paper states that hospital physicians pay little attention to smoking among their patients.
