Abstract
We examined 224 people aged 20-40 years with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis before and after elimination of the odontogenic focus. The nature of the clinical course was assessed according to such indices as the frequency of tuberculosis intoxication symptoms, changes in the sedimentation rate and hemogram, presence of mycobacteria in sputum, reaction to tuberculin administration with 2 units, and radiological changes in the lungs.
