Late relapses in those with residual tuberculous changes in the lungs

Abstract

The analysis included 127 patients with residual tuberculous changes in the lungs having tuberculosis relapse for the last 5 years. Among them women made 26 (20.5%) and men made 101 (79.5%). The late relapses were characterized by more severe clinical forms compared to the primary disease. In those with residual tuberculous changes the risk of relapse is present through the rest of life with the highest risk in the period from 5 to 20 years after taking off the register (65.2%) and when the age of patients is above 50 years old (68.5%). It would be feasible and logical to keep the patients with residual tuberculous changes for follow-up in tuberculosis control services.
