[Tuberculosis of the sternum in children].
Operations for tuberculosis and BCG lesion of the sternum were performed on 70 children of preschool age. Clinico-epidemiological features, results of complex X-ray investigation and complex treatment were analyzed. It was noted that in the recent years the number of children with the pathology in question became greater, the possibilities of standard roentgenography for the diagnosis are limited, computed tomography is of high diagnostic value as well as the efficiency of radical operations fulfilled against the background of combined antituberculous chemotherapy.
