Abstract
Microscopic changes in the lung biopsies of 16 adult patients of both sexes without clear clinical symptoms are described. According to X-ray examination data, disseminated process in the lungs was diagnosed in 4 patients, interstitial pneumonia in 4, osteoplastic pneumopathy in 3, as well as tuberculosis, bronchiolitis and a number of others. Microscopic examination showed that the patients had various forms of petrification and ossification of the lungs, diagnosed clinically and radiologically in only 3 cases. The place of petrification of the lungs in nosology is discussed, from which it follows that we are talking about a violation of calcium metabolism, i.e. about dystrophy, and not about a storage disease. Petrification of the lungs as a precursor to ossification is a complication of various diseases, but not a self-sufficient nosological form.
期刊介绍：
The journal deals with original investigations on pressing problems of general pathology and pathologic anatomy, newest research methods, major issues of the theory and practice as well as problems of experimental, comparative and geographic pathology. To inform readers latest achievements of Russian and foreign medicine the journal regularly publishes editorial and survey articles, reviews of the most interesting Russian and foreign books on pathologic anatomy, new data on modern methods of investigation (histochemistry, electron microscopy, autoradiography, etc.), about problems of teaching, articles on the history of pathological anatomy development both in Russia and abroad.
