A Clinical Case of the Personalized Approach to Surgical Treatment of Drug-Resistant Bilateral Fibrous Cavernous Pulmonary Tuberculosis Complicated by Pyopneumothorax and Pleural Cavity Empyema

Abstract

A clinical case shows the complexity of the choice of surgical strategy for treatment in drug-resistant bilateral fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by pyopneumothorax and empyema of the pleural cavity. A non-standard personalized approach to the patient with initially compromised cardiorespiratory system resulted not only in cure of tuberculosis complications but also improved pulmonary functional parameters and allowed avoiding progression of pulmonary tuberculosis.
