On the classification of chronic inflammatory nonspecific lung disease

Abstract

On the pages of the Kazan Medical Journal, the issues of the classification of chronic pneumonia are again discussed as a discussion. It should be emphasized that the proposed classifications do not relate to chronic pneumonia in a collective sense, as envisaged by the Minsk (1964) and Tbilisi (1972) classifications, which have been seriously criticized. We are talking about chronic pneumonia, as a strictly localized recurrent inflammatory process in the bronchopulmonary system, characterized not only by localization (in a lobe or segment), but also by variants of the course (rare or frequent exacerbations, continuously recurrent course), the phase of the pathological process (exacerbation, remission) , the degree of disease activity in the exacerbation phase (pronounced or moderate exacerbation, sluggish process).
