Biochemical characteristics of exudates after pulmonectomy and pleuro-pulmonectomy in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and different course of postoperative period

Suppuration of the hemithorax cavity and bronchial fistulas complicate considerably the postoperative period in patients who underwent removal of the lung for tuberculosis. Study of the dynamics of changes of the glycosaminoglycan content, activity of hyaluronidase, trypsin-like proteinases, and ela...

Summary:Suppuration of the hemithorax cavity and bronchial fistulas complicate considerably the postoperative period in patients who underwent removal of the lung for tuberculosis. Study of the dynamics of changes of the glycosaminoglycan content, activity of hyaluronidase, trypsin-like proteinases, and elastolytic activity in the postoperative exudate allows the development of purulent complications in the cavity of the postoperative hemithorax to be detected earlier and corrected in time.
