of connective tissue. What is the most likely diagnosis?

them. Specify the type of meningitis in the child:

3. A male patient is 28 years old. Histological study of a cervical lymph node revealed a change of its pattern
due to the proliferation of epithelioid, lymphoid cells and macrophages having nuclei in form of a horseshoe. In
the center of some cell clusters there were non-structured lightpink areas with fragments of nuclei. What
disease are these changes typical for?
A. Tuberculosis
B. Hodgkin’s disease

4. Autopsy of a 17 year old girl who died from pulmonary failure revealed a small area of caseous necrosis in
the inferior lobe of the right lung, and occurences of caseous necrosis in the bronchopulmonary, bronchial and
bifurcational lymph nodes. What is the most probable postmortem diagnosis?
A. Primary tuberculosis
B. Hematogenous progression of primary tuberculosis
C. Hematogenous tuberculosis with predominant lung affection
D. Tuberculoma
E. Caseous pneumonia under secondary tuberculosis
5. A patient with tuberculosis died from progressing cardiopulmonary decompensation. Autopsy in the region
of the right lung apex revealed a cavity 5 cm in diameter communicating with lumen of a segmental bronchus.
On the inside cavity walls are covered with caseous masses with epithelioid and Langhans cells beneath them.
What morphological form of tuberculosis is it?
A. Acute cavernous tuberculosis
B. Tuberculoma
C. Caseous pneumonia
D. Infiltrative tuberculosis
E. Acute focal tuberculosis
6. A 46 year old patient who had been suffering from tuberculosis for 6 years died from massive pulmonary
haemorrhage. Autopsy revealed different-sixed foci of sclerosis and caseous necrosis in lungs, in the upper part
of the right lung there was a cavity 5 cm in diameter with dense grey walls, the cavity contained liquid blood
and blood clots. What type of tuberculosis is it?
A. Fibrocavernous
B. Acute cavernous
C. Infiltrative
D. Fibrous focal
E. Acute focal
7. Autopsy of a 48 y.o. man revealed a round formation 5 cm in diameter with clear-cut outlines in the region of
the 1st segment of his right lung. This formation was encircled with a thin layer of connective tissue full of
white brittle masses. Make a diagnosis of the secondary tuberculosis form:
A. Tuberculoma
B. Caseous pneumonia
C. Acute cavernous tuberculosis
D. Acute focal tuberculosis
E. Fibrous cavernous tuberculosis
8. On autopsy a 35-year-old man the focus of carnification 5 cm in diametre enclosed in a thin capsule was
revealed in the second segment of the right lung . The focus consists of a tough dry friable tissue with a dim
surface. For what disease are these morphological changes typical?
A. Tuberculoma
B. Lung cancer
C. Chondroma
D. Tumorous form of silicosis
E. Postinflammatory pneumosclerosis
9. A 40-year-old prisoner died of tuberculosis in the corrective labor camp. Autopsy of the body
revealeddeformation and diminishing of both lung apices; in the ties with dense walls 2-3 mm thick; in the foci
of caseous necrosis varying from 5 mm to 2 cv in diameter. Diagnose the type of tuberculosis.
A. Secondary fibro-cavitary tuberculosis
B. Secondary fibrous-focal tuberculosis
C. Secondary cirrhotic tuberculosis
D. Hematogenous macrofocal pulmonary tuberculosis

10. Autopsy of a man, who died from acute posthaemorrhagic anaemia resulting from pulmonary haemorrhage,
revealed the following: macroscopically - lung apexes were deformed, their section showed multiple whitish-
grey foci 10-15 mm in diameter and multiple pathological cavities up to 15 mm in diameter with dense walls.
Microscopically: the cavity walls presented proliferation of the connective tissue infiltrated by epithelioid cells,
multicellular giant cells and lymphocytes. What is the most likely diagnosis?

C. Progressing tuberculosis complex
D. Hematogenic disseminated pulmonary tuberculosis
