One fourth of all patients with bacteriologic positive tuberculosis, who had been admitted in the Robert-Koch-Hospital of Leipzig between 1974 and 1978, were older than 70 years of age. Most of them suffered from an extensive, contagious, cavitary disease with impressive clinical symptoms. The prevailing part of them could be treated by the so-called "Zweiphasentherapie". That means a daily initial treatment was followed by an intermittent period of chemotherapy. Most of them reached quickly sputum conversion. As yet the bacteriologic relapse is very low.
1974年至1978年间入住莱比锡罗伯特 - 科赫医院的所有细菌学阳性肺结核患者中，四分之一年龄超过70岁。他们中的大多数患有广泛的、具有传染性的空洞性疾病，临床症状明显。其中大部分患者可以通过所谓的“两阶段疗法”进行治疗。这意味着在每日初始治疗之后是化疗的间歇期。他们中的大多数人很快实现了痰菌转阴。到目前为止，细菌学复发率非常低。
