Abstract
Objective. On the basis of own material determine the role of radical surgery methods in treating tubercular formations of the brain in HIV-infected patients.
Materials and Methods. Studied: statistical forms of the SSPB of the IOKB from 2008 to 2020, FTBPR data from 2017 to 2020, nature of the disease in 56, long-term disease dynamics — in 8, the autopsy material of 331 dead and the biopsy — 9 patients operated on with central nervous system damage (CNS).
Results and Discussion. The number of patients with tuberculous meningoencephalitis increases in the structure of in-patient facilities, case-fatality rate among them grows. Need for neurosurgical care among the survivors is 25%. Long-term monitoring of operatively treated patients shows their higher survival rate, significant clinical effect of surgery, lengthening of life, increase of CD4 lymphocytes by 2,7 times in 3,5 years after the surgery. Formation of restrictive processes around tuberculous lesion in CNS was noted when taking ART with low immune status.
Conclusion. Radical removal of tubercular formations of CNS in HIV is reasonable.
