[Lymphogranulomatosis of the lung]

Two collectives of patients with pulmonary involvement in the course of lymphogranulomatosis, one consisting of 48 out of 120 and the other of 13 out of 90 patients, were followed separately because of the different therapeutic conditions. Statistical parameters, such as the frequency of pulmonary implication, age of incidence of the disease, sex proportion, responses to therapy, and number of survivals were studied and compared mutually. Additionally, a differentiation of the morphological manifestations and the anatomic localization was radiographically performed. The problem of clinical staging is discussed.
