Text С . Pulmonary Tuberculosis - Clinical Picture
Pulmonary tuberculosis is caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis, which produces characteristic tuberculous changes in the lung. This disease may also affect other organs: bones, joints, lymphatic glands, kidneys, etc. The causative agent of tuberculosis was discovered by Koch in 1882.
In the early stage of tuberculosis the patient usually complains of a general malaise, fatigue, loss of appetite and body weight. Cough may be dry or productive, i.e. with sputum discharge. Coughing becomes worse at night and in the morning. In patients with cavities in the lungs coughing is accompanied by a considerable discharge of sputum.
Sputum is mucopurulent. Its microscopic examination reveals a large number of pus corpuscles, erythrocytes, and tuberculous organisms. Blood in the sputum is sometimes the first sign of tuberculosis. If large blood vessels are involved, the discharge of blood may become profuse.
Fever is one of the permanent symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis. In benign processes the body temperature is often subfebrile. In active forms it may range from 38° to 39 °C. A considerable elevation of temperature is observed in pneumonic forms, when fever persists at a level of 38 °C and higher for several months.
Cold profuse perspiration at night is sometimes evidence of a severe form of tuberculosis. Loss of body weight is one of the typical signs of pulmonary tuberculosis. It is caused by tuberculous intoxication, a sharp increase in the metabolic rate and loss of appetite. Loss of body weight is particularly marked in progressive forms of the disease.

Being examined by the therapeutist the patient stated that he had had an accelerated pulse rate and reduced arterial pressure a month before.

X. Read and translate Text D using a dictionary,
Text D
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.
