Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The caseous necrosis is the basic process of tuberculosis disease in humans.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are five stages: onset, symbiosis, early stages of caseous necrosis, interplay of cell-mediated immunity and tissue damaging delayed-type hypersensitivity, and liquefaction and cavity formation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The most common site of the primary lesion is within alveolar macrophages in subpleural regions of the lung. Bacilli proliferate locally and spread through the lymphatics to a hilar node, forming the Ghon complex.
