Abstract

The objective of the study: to identify the specific parameters of hepatotoxic reactions in tuberculosis patients depending on the presence of hepatitis B and C markers in the blood.
Subjects and methods. The state of the hepatobiliary system was studied in 107 HIV-negative patients with newly diagnosed infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis in the destructive phase. The main group included 52 people with positive results of the tests for markers of viral hepatitis B and C, the comparison group included 55 people with negative results. The groups were compatible in age, volume of the lung tissue lesions, and drug resistance profile.
Results. Even before the start of anti-tuberculosis therapy, in the main group had elevated levels of cholinesterase and blood amylase, ultrasound examination detected hyperechoic liver parenchyma, enlarged right lobe of the liver, liver veins fibrosis, the enlarged diameter of the cystic duct and splenic vein, and splenomegaly (p <0.05), which was statistically significantly more frequent than in the comparison group. In the course of treatment, patients of both groups developed hepatotoxic reactions, however, in the main group they were more frequent versus the comparison group (88.4 and 21.8%, respectively, p <0.05), appeared earlier on average by 14 days and were accompanied by more pronounced clinical manifestations and abnormalities of biochemical parameters.
