ABSTRACT
Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a serious health problem in most of the districts in the 5th Sanitary Region of Buenos Aires Province (RSV) which is located in North Buenos Aires City suburbs. The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the evolution of the TB epidemiological situation in ten districts, in a thirteen year period (1984-96) and to analyse possible reasons for differences. The average annual variation (VAP) of morbidity rate was calculated in order to estimate the trends of TB in these communities along time. Reporting to the National and Provincial TB Control Programmes of TB cases is mandatory for physicians and these data were used as a source of information for the number of cases and rates. A statistical analysis was performed. Our results showed that the VAP value for the whole RSV was lower than -5.0
