چکیده
Pulmonary resection has evolved as the treatment of choice in certain clinicopathologic entities of pulmonary tuberculosis. However, the precise roles of resective and non-resective therapy will ultimately be determined through analysis of the results obtained by these forms of treatment. Therefore, it seems important to report current experiences in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. The present study is a critical analysis of 268 consecutive pulmonary resections for proved pulmonary tuberculosis.
