[Clinical aspects of pulmonary thromboembolism].

This paper is a review of the patients with pulmonary thromboembolism hospitalized at General hospital in Teanj starting from the first case recorded in 1980 till now and 172 patients were subjects of this study. Thromboembolism was a direct cause of death in 43.7% (75 patients). Clinical and laboratory records, etiology, chest radiography, ECG data of 89 patients hospitalised and treated in the last five years were analyzed in detail. The most frequent symptoms were dyspnea and tachypnea, often accompanied with other symptoms (84.2%), chest pain (65.2%), cough (52.4%), tachycardia (40.5%), hemoptysis (25.8%). At 74% of patients with pulmonary thromboembolism a significant simultaneous increase of all examined enzymes, except CPK was found. Pulmonary insufficiency (global or partial) was found at 75% of patients. According to our results, in 57.2% of the subjects the pathologic changes on Radiography (infiltrates of the lung, with or without affection of the pleura and changed position of diaphragm) were found, and 70.9% had changes on the ECG.

[Tuberculous pericarditis].

A case of specific tuberculous pericarditis is described. A short clinical and etiological classification of pericarditis is given. There are so many new forms of pericarditis today, like autoimmune, postirradiation, drug induced, etc. Specific tuberculous pericarditis is rarely registered today. One must intend to specify TB pericarditis almost if pericardial effusion is present. Pericardial punction is of much help in the diagnosis and treatment of pericardial effusion. Steroid therapy is very important in prevention of forming pericardial adhesions.
