A Special Complex of Pulmonary Tuberculosis in the Right Upper Lobe with Involvement of the Interlobar Pleura

LASAR DUNNER M.D.1

1 The Chest Clinic, Hull, England.

A special complex of pulmonary tuberculosis has been described. It is exclusively situated in the right upper lobe; the lower boundary is the interlobar pleura between upper and mid-lobes.

Spontaneous healing may occur and takes place by resorption, fibrosis (shrinkage) or calcification. Corresponding to the type of healing radiologically the interlobar pleura may disappear or its position may remain unchanged or it may be displaced upward. Other cases exhibiting the complex do not show proneness to spontaneous healing; they remain stationary or deteriorate and end fatally.
