Abstract
Diagnosis of pleuro-pulmonary diseases (pleurisy, pleuropneumonia, diaphragmitis) occurring with the abdominal symptomcomplex presents significant difficulties in practical work, being often a source of diagnostic errors. The abdominal syndrome of pleuro-pulmonary diseases is explained by the predominance in the clinical picture of such important symptoms as abdominal pain, tension of the abdominal muscles, pain on palpation, irritation of the peritoneum, and vomiting. All these symptoms are known to be characteristic of acute surgical abdominal pathology. Their occurrence in pleuro-pulmonary diseases is due to the innervation relationships between the organs of the chest and abdominal cavities.
