  • Title: [Diagnosis of mycotic infections in patients with tuberculosis of the respiratory organs].
    Author: Solov'eva TN, Karaev ZO, Ignat'eva SM, Mizonov VN.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1991; (7):37-40. PubMed ID: 1754587.
    Abstract:
    The basic clinico-diagnostic criteria are given which detect an intercurrent infection caused by opportunistic fungi of the Candida and Aspergillus genus. The antibacterial drugs of nonspecific action used in patients with destructive forms of respiratory tuberculosis promote the growth and reproduction of fungus flora and aggravate the course of the underlying process in the lung tissue. When there is intercurrent mycotic infection, the antifungal therapy produces a clinical effect in patients with combined pathology.
