Can surgical removal of tuberculosis be cured?

Whether surgical resection of pulmonary tuberculosis can be cured depends on a case-by-case basis. If the patient's disease is mild and treated promptly, it is usually curable. However, if the patient's condition is severe and the doctor does not actively cooperate with the treatment, it may not be cured.

1. Yes: Tuberculosis is a respiratory infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, which is contagious. If the patient does not have obvious symptoms of discomfort in the early stage of the disease, and does not affect the normal life and work, at this time, the goal of cure can generally be achieved by actively taking anti-tuberculosis drugs such as rifampicin, isoniazid, etc. according to the doctor's instructions, and cooperating with local radiotherapy.

2. No: However, if the patient has obvious symptoms such as cough and sputum, and is also accompanied by chest pain, hemoptysis, etc., and even has seriously affected the normal diet and sleep, this situation is a serious tuberculosis disease, which cannot be completely cured by simple surgical resection. It is also necessary to use a combination of anti-tuberculosis drugs for co-treatment, such as pyrazinamide tablets, ethambutol hydrochloride capsules, etc., which can inhibit the reproduction of germs in the body to a certain extent, so as to control the development of the disease.

It is recommended that patients pay attention to maintaining good living habits in daily life, avoid overwork, and pay attention to the combination of work and rest. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining a good attitude and avoiding emotional agitation, so as not to aggravate the condition.
