ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To determine the incidence of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) and examine the risk factors and the clinical features of the disease over a ten-year period.

METHODS:

Retrospective study of records of patients who were followed and registered in the TB registry programme in the health district of Gorgan, Iran from January 1, 2008, through December 31, 2017.

RESULTS:

Among 2280 TB records, 609 (26.71%) were EPTB. They were mostly female patients (53.7%) and residents in rural areas (56.5%) with a mean age of 40.55 years [±16]. The average age of female patients (37.55 years [±16.99]) was lower than of male patients (44.07 years [±20.59]). The median of the incidence rate was 7.5 per 100 000 inhabitants for EPTB; biopsy and pathology were the best methods for the detection of EPTB. The most frequent forms of EPTB were lymphatic TB (193/609 = 31.7%) and pleural TB (158/609 = 25.9%). In most cases (245/609 = 40.2%), one to three months elapsed between occurrence of symptoms and final confirmation of EPTB. The outcome of EPTB was weaker than of pulmonary TB (PTB).

CONCLUSION:

Our most important finding was the increasing incidence of EPTB, which shows the importance of attention to this disease. Lymph node and pleural tissue were the most commonly infected tissues. Skeletal TB presents a challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of EPTB.
OBJECTIF Déterminer l'incidence de la tuberculose extra-pulmonaire (EPTB) et examiner les facteurs de risque et les caractéristiques cliniques de la maladie sur une période de dix ans. MÉTHODES Etude rétrospective des dossiers des patients qui ont été suivis et enregistrés dans le programme d'enregistrement de la TB dans le district de santé de Gorgan, en Iran, du 1er janvier 2008 au 31 décembre 2017. RÉSULTATS Parmi 2.280 enregistrements de TB, 609 (26,71%) étaient des EPTB. Il s'agissait principalement de femmes (53,7%) et de résidents des zones rurales (56,5%) avec un âge moyen de 40,55 ans [± 16]. L'âge moyen des patients de sexe féminin (37,55 ans [± 16,99]) était inférieur à celui des hommes (44,07 ans [± 20,59]). La médiane du taux d'incidence était de 7,5 pour 100.000 habitants pour l'EPTB; la biopsie et la pathologie étaient les meilleures méthodes pour la détection de l'EPTB. Les formes les plus fréquentes d'EPTB étaient la TB lymphatique (193/609 = 31,7%) et la TB pleurale (158/609 = 25,9%). Dans la plupart des cas (245/609 = 40,2%), un à trois mois s'étaient écoulés entre l'apparition des symptômes et la confirmation finale de l'EPTB. Le résultat de l'EPTB était plus faible que celui de la TB pulmonaire (PTB).

CONCLUSION:

Notre découverte la plus importante a été l'incidence croissante d'EPTB, ce qui montre l'importance de l'attention portée à cette maladie. Les ganglions lymphatiques et les tissus pleuraux étaient les tissus les plus fréquemment infectés. La TB osseuse présente un défi dans le diagnostic et le traitement de l'EPTB.
