    Abstract:
    The study of frequency and of the nature of post-tuberculous syndromes in a group including 1351 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at their first treatment, investigated between 1974 and 1977, has demonstrated that in the present stage of initial chemotherapy with standardized drug regimens, the post-tuberculous syndromes are decreasing in most of the cases, developing in those of the patients that presented with advanced froms of the disease at the start of the the therapy (2,8% in our study). At the same time one should note the prevalence of patients that have benefited from initial courses of chemotherapy with classical and relay drugs, such patients usually having less severe anatomic and radiologic lesions. The study of types of post-tuberculous syndromes has revealed the increased frequency of the bronchitic syndrome.
