Background: The author studied to define the current indications for surgical management of chest tuberculosis and to analyze the results of the operative procedures. Material and Method: The records of 87 patients among 107 patients operated on between January 1992 and May 1995 were reviewed. These patients were divided into 4 groups. Group I patients (n=45) underwent decortication with or without wedge resection of the lesion. Group II patients(n=23) underwent radical curettages of chest wall involving rib caries with or without thoracotomy. Group III patients(n=12) underwent standard pneumonectomy or pleuropneumonectomy. Group IV patients(n=7) underwent exploratory thoracotomy or wedge resection of tuberculous lung lesion. Result: Statistical analysis revealed an inverse correlation between AIs and intratumoral microvessel densities in squamous cell lung carcinoma(Spearman rank correlation coefficient r=- 0.229, p=0.047). Conclusion: The author concludes that surgery for chest tuberculosis is the definite management for therapeutic indications and surgical radication of tuberculous carriers for management of chest tuberculosis is safe and has satisfactory results.
