Abstract:
In 195 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in 70% changes in the bronchi were found. They were either active (45%) or inactive (25%). In 10% of the cases severe changes were found, this percentage did not decrease in the past 15 years. Most often bronchial findings were seen in elder women. In 4 cases bronchial cancer was co-existent. Difficulties in differential diagnosis in such cases were underlined.
