ABSTRACT
An analysis of results and treatment outcomes of 178 patients has been made. The patients were examined 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 months after discharge from hospital. The parameters characterizing residual cavities, pneumofibrosis, pleural fibrosis and changes in the bronchial tree were analyzed. Recovery was noted in 172 patients (96.63%). According to CT scan data positive dynamics in the reparative processes in the lungs and pleural cavity could be seen. No relapses of the purulent processes and development of lung cirrhosis were noted.

An analysis of results of examination and treatment of 59 patients with a prolonged duration of acute abscesses of the lungs has shown the influence of immune disorders on the dynamics of the development and outcome of pyo-destructive disease in the lung. The indications to local immunosubstituting therapy were determined. A new original method of administration and a scheme of prescription of the medicine Betaleukin are proposed. Clinical efficiency of the method proposed is shown. The local immunocorrection used in the complex treatment of patients with acute abscesses of the lungs allows to get recovery of 89% of the patients.

High curative efficiency of prolonged transbronchial catheterization of destruction cavities of the lung is shown on the basis of results of treatment of 80 patients. Possible risk factors and preventive measures in using this method are described.
