Question
On the second day after the Mantoux reaction (the subcutaneous
introduction of tuberculin - a protein-lipopolysaccharide
component of mycobacterium tuberculosis), a child had an area of
compaction and hyperemia in the injection zone with a diameter
of 2.5 cm, that was surrounded by a swollen roller. A day later, a
zone of necrosis was formed at the site of tuberculin
administration.
Questions:
1. What typical pathological process (TPP) did develop in the
patient? Give its definition.
2. Specify the type of this TPP according to the Jell-Coombs
classification.
3. What is the reason for the development of this TPP in the
patient?
