ABSTRACT
Morphological alterations of microvessels in bronchial mucosa and blood capillaries of alveolar septa during endobronchitis were examined in workers employed at a plutonium plant and not employed residents (Zheleznogorsk, Krasnoyarsk Region). Alterative, destructive, and dysadaptive changes in pulmonary vessels of workers were paralleled by developing reparative and adaptive processes in neighboring capillaries.
