Byssinosis.

Byssinosis as a nonspecific chronic respiratory disease in textile workers exposed to cotton, flax, jute, hemp and sisal is described. Opinions about aetiopathogenesis are presented. The following chapters are focused on clinical symptoms and functional lung changes. Classification of the disease is described afterwards. Finally, the necessity of medical and technical measures to prevent the development of this disease in textile workers is emphasised.
