title: [Patient with haemoptysis, dyspnoea, fever and lung infiltration].
abstract: In this study we presented the case of 55 years old man who was admitted to the Dept. of Lung Diseases and Tuberculosis in Zabrze with haemoptysis, dyspnoea, fever and lung infiltration. Initially the neoplastic disease was diagnosed. From the information gathered from the patient's family it was stated that the patient has been taking acenocoumarol for a considerably long time without any professional supervision. In this study we emphasize the importance of motivating and informing patients about the purposefulness of control examinations while using this kind of drugs.
