The specific features of productive inflammation caused by M. tuberculosis in HIV-infected individuals were identified. It was stated that inflammation is characterized by a reduction in the number of lymphocytes and Pirogov-Langhans giant polynuclear cells in epithelioid granulomas. It was reported that HIV-TB co-infection accompanied by drug and alcohol addiction resulted in multiple foci of caseous necrosis in the loci of productive inflammation. However, the size of the inflammatory cell infiltrate was reduced. The composition of the cell infiltrate underwent significant changes and was characterized by a more pronounced decrease in the number of lymphocytes accompanied by an insignificant decrease in the number epithelial cells and macrophages.
