abstract="Two hundred and fifteen case histories were studied to clarify causes of death in patients with active tuberculosis who had died from it. Males accounted for the largest proportion (86%) (n = 185). Patients above 50 years were 63.3% (n = 136). Two thirds were patients with restrictive tuberculosis without destruction and bacterial isolation. A hundred and fifty (70%) and 30% patients died from somatic diseases and other causes (sequels to alcohol abuse, violent death, suicide, etc.), respectively. Of the somatic diseases, cardiovascular diseases head the list, cancer ranks next to it, nonspecific respiratory diseases occupy the third place.<p /><p>Language: ru</p>",
