The results of surgical treatment of 102 patients with destructive tuberculosis of the lungs and liver pathology are presented. It was shown possible to widen the operability ranges in the patients by using the up-to-date treatment including hemosorption and laser technique. After hemosorption there was a significant improvement of liver function. Data on efficiency of the surgical treatment (90.2 per cent) in the group of the patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at high surgical risk are indicated.
