Abstract: | An outbreak of pneumocytosis in a children's tuberculosis hospital was analyzed. The infection was characterized by few signs and favourable progress. Antibiotic therapy failed. To eliminate the outbreak of pneumocystosis in the hospital it was necessary to detect all the children with pneumocystosis and carriers of pneumocysts among the patients and medical staff, to use furazolidone for etiotropic treatment of the patients with pneumocystosis and to perform one-stage sanation of the carriers with antiparasitic agents. |
