[Removing of the remaining parts of the lung by the pulmonectomy type in tuberculosis reactivation after partial resect ions].
The outcomes of reoperation--removal of the remaining parts of the lung by the pulmonectomy type--for tuberculosis reactivation after partial lung resections were studied in 51 patients. A 3-5-month comprehensive preoperative preparation promoted stabilization of a tuberculous process in the lung in 31 (60.8%) patients, partial stabilization in 13 (25.5%). A progressive clinical course was observed in 7 (13.7%) patients receiving antibiotic therapy. The good immediate efficiency of pulmonectomy (76.9%) and postoperative clinical recovery (84.1%) show that this treatment is justifiable and expedient for critically ill patients.
