Surgical interventions in the complex treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Preoperative planning with 3D modeling

The monograph is devoted to an important medical and social problem - improving the effectiveness of treatment of tuberculosis patients with surgical interventions. Evaluation of the effectiveness of surgical treatment in the long-term period made it possible to establish the main controllable risk factors for reactivation of the tuberculosis process in the postoperative period. The influence of the timing of surgical treatment on the long-term results of surgical treatment and the formation of drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been proved. An innovative approach of preoperative planning with the help of 3D computer modeling through the Autopilot program for planning surgical interventions on the lungs is presented. A personalized approach is proposed when choosing surgical treatment and improving the tactics of preoperative preparation. It is intended for doctors — thoracic surgeons, phthisiologists.
