  • Title: [Caseous pneumonia in nursing and young infants (based on pathomorphological study data)].
    Author: Mykolyshin LI.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1996; (4):37-8. PubMed ID: 9026802.
    Abstract:
    Fifty-six autopsy protocols showing the presence of caseous pneumonia in babies and infants who died in 1947-1994 were examined. In the age group of children who died from caseous pneumonia (n = 88), babies and infants made up 63.6%. In 1947-1962, caseous pneumonia was found to frequently complicate a primary tuberculosis process both in babies (28.3%) and in 1-3-year-old infants (22.2%). At the same time lifetime tuberculosis was not recognized in 21.4% of cases and 26.8% died within the first 3 days of their hospital stay.
