[Results of studying of the pathomorphism of pulmonary tuberculosis in Iakutiia].

The paper summarizes the results of studies into the pathological anatomy and pathomorphism of pulmonary tuberculosis in Yakutia, which have been conducted by the Department of Anatomy, Yakutsk State University Medical Institute, over 36 years. A morphological comparative analysis of autopsies of individuals who died from different forms in the pre-antibacterial and antibacterial periods and surgical materials were used as a major source of data. More than 1,000 autopsies made it possible to define a wide range of behavioral patterns and the morphological features of pulmonary tuberculosis under the extreme climatic conditions of the Far North. These findings have made a significant contribution to the development of the new scientific school Northern Phthisiology.
