title: [Spontaneous pneumothorax in patients with tuberculosis and nonspecific diseases of the lung].
abstract: The clinical manifestations of spontaneous pneumothorax were determined in patients with respiratory tuberculosis and nonspecific lung diseases. Spontaneous pneumothorax was shown to be a group of complications of lung disease, which is heterogenic in the clinical course and outcomes. Moreover, its morphological basis was pulmonary emphysema, a destructive specific process, or a concomitance of these diseases. In patients with spontaneous pneumothorax, its severity was determined by the continuosly functioning bronchopleural fistula.
