Abstract

In this presentation, two aspects concerning the immunopathology of tuberculosis at the microanatomical level will be considered. The material for this presentation is drawn from our studies on tuberculous lymphadenitis (450 cases) and skin tuberculosis (270 cases). The first question to be considered is ‘when is it necessary to demonstrate the components of M.tuberculosis in the tissues?’ The second is the question of the involvement of humoral immune factors associated with some of the histological manifestations of tuberculosis.
