    Abstract:
    The principal idea of the method of surgery is the division of patients into two groups: a group of patients with a stable process and a group of patients with the disease in the stage of non-cupped exacerbation. When using any surgical interventions one should follow the principle of maximum preservation of the functioning lung tissue, the surgery being performed in the size of destructive changes in the lungs. In a unilateral cavernous injury resection of the lung or pneumonectomy was the main method of surgery. In the treatment of patients with bilateral caverns the main line of the surgical tactics is the planned bilateral surgical treatment, individual selection of the optimal combination of different operations, division of the surgical treatment into steps and choice of their sequence.
