[Pneumological consultation practice in an anti-tuberculosis dispensary].

The authors present six years experience in connection with the diagnosis and the medical assistance of non-tuberculous broncho-pneumopathies in an anti-tuberculous dispensary. The data presented include 3600 cases with various diseases of which acute pneumopathies represent 11%, chronic bronchitis 14%, and broncho-pulmonary suppurations 9%. It is estimated that such an office of pneumological consultations within an anti-tuberculous dispensary is efficient and can, in the majority of the cases, make a correct diagnosis and provide corresponding dispensarization. This is conditioned by the existence of a nucleus for radiological, bacteriological and functional investigation.

[Is asymptomatic pulmonary tuberculosis ever detected by radiophotography?].

Following several organized detection campaigns it was demonstrated that these did not provide valid results even when these were organized as integral detections or for groups at risk. The authors maintain that the only group in which a satisfactory result can be obtained is represented by the subjects showing symptoms evoking pulmonary tuberculosis. These are known and can be sent to investigation by the district physician. It is recommended that the radiophotographic equipments should be assimilated to radiological apparatuses, but with better accesibility which the physicians should be able to apply without difficulty in the cases with major or minor symptoms suggesting specifical pulmonary disease.
