[Prevalence and specific features of pulmonary emphysema in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis]

The prevalence and specific features of emphysema of the lung were studied in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. The temporal pattern of the process and secondary obstructive genesis were established. It was stated that there was a redistribution of the existing emphysematous changes into the unaffected parts of the lung along with the higher scope of the chronic tuberculosis process.
