[Immunological diagnosis of aspergillosis in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].

The informative value of a number of immunological tests, such as the routine tests of lymphocyte blast cell transformation and indirect hemagglutination, and the original tests of cytotoxic effect and neutrophil damage was studied in diagnosis of aspergillosis. 94 patients with fibro-cavernous tuberculosis and 18 patients with lung aspergillosis along with tuberculosis were examined. It was shown that the tests provided diagnosis of aspergillosis in the tuberculosis patients. The diagnostic efficiency of the tests was studied. The test of neutrophil damage proved to be the most informative. Diagnostic tables for interpretation of the immunological examination results were developed.
