title: [Clinical and morphological comparisons in pulmonary tuberculosis in workers from pneumoconiosis-risk industries].
abstract: The relationship between the efficiency of treatment and the nature of morphological changes in the lung was studied in 125 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis without X-ray signs of pneumoconiosis who worked at coniosis-risk enterprises (CRR). Despite adequate specific and pathogenetic therapy, tuberculomas formed and decay cavities preserved in the patients, in this connection they had surgical treatment. Three types of morphological changes were identified. Quartz-containing industrial dust was found to exert an adverse potentiating effect on the course of tuberculosis in most CRE patients: increases in the delimiting a specific process of respiratory disorders and postoperative complications. These specific features should be borne in mind in drawing up a treatment protocol for patients working exposed to industrial dust.
