The paper describes a case of Wegener's granulomatosis with upper airway and lung involvements in a 14-year-old patient. Cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis was presumptively diagnosed during planned examination. The diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis was established by examining the materials obtained during marginal resection of the lung. The clinical and laboratory indices and histological findings of the biopsy specimens taken during open lung biopsy were considered.

Uterine scrapes from 45 women (30 cases of spontaneous and 15 cases of artificial abortions) were studied. Heterogeneity of distribution of large granular lymphocytes and macrophages in decidual membrane of women with spontaneous abortions was revealed. Autoimmune disturbances were found primarily in the subgroup with domination of large granular lymphocytes, urogenital infection prevailed in the subgroup with macrophage domination. Hormonal disturbances and uterine malformations occurred more frequently in women with normal count of lymphocytes and macrophages.
