[L. K. Bogush's role in the development of surgical treatment for tuberculosis and other respiratory pathology in children and adolescents].
The paper briefly describes data on the first operations on the lung made in children at the Central Research Institute of Tuberculosis for pulmonary tuberculosis under anesthesia. According to L. K. Bogush's recommendations, the author has first made clinicomorphological and bacteriological comparisons of different pathological tissue from 105 children and adolescents operated on for pulmonary tuberculosis, 81 biopsy specimens being abacillary. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was found in 54.3% of the operative biopsy specimens from the patients long (mean 1.5 to 2 years) treated by antibiotics. L. K. Bogush defined indications for surgical treatment for different clinical forms of pulmonary tuberculosis in children and adolescents. Six hundred and twenty-seven operations were performed in 589 children and adolescents. All types and volumes of lung resections, pneumonectomy, pleuropneumonectomy, pleurectomy, lymphonudulectomy(tomy), and main bronchi occlusion were made. Operations were performed mainly via lateral access, without crossing the ribs.
