Abstract
Actual data on morbidity and mortality due to different infections are presented with special reference to the fact that in many cases their role remains underestimated and the morphology of many diseases is not detailly known. Majority of infections have been successfully studied since the beginning of the XXth century by scientific school of V.D. Zinserling in Saint-Petersburg (Leningrad) and several phthisiopathologists in Moscow. Due to different reasons, the outstanding results of their research are hardly known in the world. General elaborated principles of infections study are presented with comments concerning the usefulness of existing methods and terminology. Text is illustrated by four original schemas. In reference list nearby the modern manuals, the publications in Russian of different time are included with data staying important nowadays.
