    Author: Mitinskaia LA, Iavorskiĭ KM.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1991; (7):7-8. PubMed ID: 1754598.
    Abstract:
    Tuberculosis-related examination of 123 children during hospital treatment in 2 pneumologic departments has revealed 9.8% of tuberculosis patients. Among the children with destructive lung processes one-third had tuberculosis in a destructive phase. Timely diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis in children's somatic hospitals, especially in those of a pneumologic type, requires the obligatory Mantoux test with 2 TU PPD-L and in children with destructive lung processes bacteriologic sputum examination for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
