Differential diagnosis of a number of pathological syndromes and tuberculosis is often associated with significant difficulties. The well-known methods of clinical research (X-ray tomography, laboratory studies, physical data) do not always allow sufficient confidence to confirm the presence of tuberculosis or to exclude it.
Currently, the use of bronchoscopy has expanded significantly for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A special place was taken by bronchoscopy in the treatment of pulmonary and bronchial tuberculosis.
Active immunization takes an important place in the complex of anti-tuberculosis measures. Vaccination by the Calmette method of uninfected contingents of the child population has long been universally recognized and widespread both in the USSR and abroad, which largely contributed to a decrease in the incidence of tuberculosis.
In recent years, in domestic and foreign literature, much attention is paid to a special form of delimited encapsulated tuberculosis - lung tuberculomas.
Tuberculosis of the genitals is not yet a sufficiently developed section of modern gynecology.

In thoracic operations, the so-called "lytic mixtures" are widely used, often including phenothiazine derivatives as one of the main active substances, usually aminazine.
We present the results of treatment of 50 patients with bronchial asthma with corticosteroids.
Bronchial asthma is a serious chronic disease, which is based on a qualitatively altered reactivity of the body to the effects of environmental factors, primarily protein factors.
Diseases of the paranasal sinuses are quite common. The number of patients especially increases during and after outbreaks of catarrh of the upper respiratory tract and flu.
The experience of using various alloplastic materials for the closure of large muscular-aponeurotic defects in ventral and inguinal hernias is widely covered, but continues to interest a wide range of practitioners.
The history of the fight against inflammatory complications after surgery for appendicitis can be roughly divided into two periods.
According to a number of authors (AI Rakov, 1947; MG Sopilnyak, 1959, etc.), the mortality rate from metastases in cancer of the lower lip is 14-21% of those who have had regional lymph nodes removed. MP Fedyushin (1958), who analyzed a large clinical material of the Institute of Oncology of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences for 25 years, showed that regional relapses in patients with cancer of the lower lip after surgical interventions on the neck were observed in 6.3%.
Nibufin has been proposed for clinical use as an agent that increases the tone of smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract (1, 2). Studies by I.V. Zaikonnikova showed that it also increases the tone of the uterus
The existence of trophic disorders in the skeleton with injuries and various diseases of the peripheral or central nervous system is currently indisputable. Clinical and radiological manifestations of neurotrophic changes in bones and joints are not the same depending on the nature and localization of the main disease process in the nervous system. As for the question of the mechanism of development and the specific pathways by which the pathological neurotrophic process in the skeleton is carried out, it still remains open.
Modern complex methods of treating long bone fractures provide in most cases a normal process of bone regeneration and good functional results.
Treatment of ankle fractures is an urgent problem, since in terms of the frequency and severity of the consequences, these fractures occupy a prominent place among other injuries of the musculoskeletal system.
The difficulties and duration of infertility therapy, and sometimes the lack of the desired result, prompt us to seek new and affordable treatment methods. In case of female sterility caused by previous inflammatory diseases of the pelvis and infantilism of the genitals, we, at the suggestion of prof. V.V. Tretyakov, we have been using dry-air cans on the cervix since October 1958.
In recent years, conservative myomectomy is much more often used in surgical interventions in young women with uterine fibroids.
It is known that as the fetus develops, the mother's blood volume increases by 25-30%, mainly due to plasma.
Late toxicosis is still one of the most frequent and serious obstetric complications that attract attention. Soviet obstetricians have achieved great success in the fight against this complication through prevention.
Clinical diagnosis of colienteritis in children is rather difficult due to the similarity of symptoms observed in diseases of other etiology.
Surgical treatment of defects of the atrial and interventricular partitions of the heart has become available to a wide range of cardiac surgeons.
One of the rare complications of myocardial infarction is the rupture of the interventricular septum. Until 1960, about 100 cases of intravital diagnosis of this complication were reported in the world and domestic literature.
The modern understanding of blood coagulation is based on the theory of A. Schmidt. The essence of the blood coagulation process is that under the influence of thromboplastin (thrombokinesis) and calcium ions, blood prothrombin is converted into an active enzyme - thrombin, which causes the transition of the globular fibrinogen protein into a fibrinous protein - fibrin with the formation of a thrombus.
In January 1962, 18-year-old patient S. was admitted to the surgical department of the Mari TB Dispensary with complaints of frequent hemoptysis, pulmonary hemorrhage and a moderate cough with a significant amount of purulent sputum.

The clinic of the tuberculous process of the liver is little known to a wide circle of practitioners, since it is quite often asymptomatic or manifests itself as hepatolienal syndrome, resembling Bunty's syndrome, leishmaniasis, and malaria.
Thyroid tuberculosis is very rare (0.1 to 1%). The preoperative diagnosis of this disease is very difficult. It is possible mainly on the basis of a positive cytological analysis of punctate.
Treatment of defects along the long bones is one of the urgent tasks in surgery of the musculoskeletal system. As you know, the replacement of such defects of the tibia is often carried out with an autograft long time after stopping the infection and closing the fistula.
I. Ya. Razdolsky notes that vitamin B1 in peptic ulcer disease has an excellent effect on pain. N.A. Sulimovskaya, who conducted clinical observations on the effect of vitamin B1 in 20 patients with various diseases of internal organs, accompanied by pain, also notes a beneficial effect in terms of improving general health and the disappearance of pain.
