MODERN METHOD OF DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS TUBERCULOSIS AND LUNG CANCER
Main Article Content
Abstract
Tuberculosis and lung cancer as a combined pathology have attracted attention for a long time. Bayle saw carcinomatous consumption among the six different forms of pulmonary consumption. Modern statistics indicate that the incidence of lung cancer in patients with tuberculosis is such that it is impossible not to take into account: active pulmonary tuberculosis is found in 2-5% of patients with lung cancer, and lung cancer - in 1-2% of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis . At the same time, the pathogenetic relationship between tuberculosis and lung cancer, as well as the causal relationships between them, remain the subject of discussion, which is continued in this work. Lung cancer patients are often misdiagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis, which leads to delays in making the correct diagnosis and treatment. This is due to factors such as insufficient competence of doctors, inadequate infrastructure and socio-economic conditions in the region. This article outlines the differences between the two diseases, as well as features that would make a clinician suspect a correct diagnosis at an early stage.
