TextD

In patients who recover from tuberculosis the focus of disease is surrounded by connective tissue and the actual lesion itself may turn into a chalky nodule. In persons with more extensive involvement but with a high degree of resistance, fibroid induration of a whole lobe or lung may occur. This may limit the spread of the disease, but does not bring about (produce) complete recovery. In these cases chronic bronchitis persists for ten or twenty years or longer. A large part of the lobe or lung may be involved in the tuberculous process and many of the bronchial tubes may be dilated as a result of the chronic cough. The chest is often deformed by the partial collapse of the affected portions of the lung. The patients lose weight constantly and may die, either of the progress of the disease itself, or, more commonly, of some complicating or associated condition.
