Treatment outcomes in 97 patients with limited fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis were analyzed. Main Group included 42 patients who had bronchial valve block implanted. Comparison Group included 55 patients. Artificial pneumoperitoneum was used in both groups.Results. In Main Group, sputum conversion was achieved in 12 months in 40 (95.2%) patients, and in 32 patients (58.2%) in Comparison Group (p < 0.01). In 12 months after treatment start, positive X-ray changes were observed in 42 (100%) patients of Main Group and 40 (72.7%) patients of Comparison Group.
