Clinical forms and diagnosis of tuberculosis
Abstract
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease whose diagnosis dates back to very early ages, which still maintains its importance in the world and in our country, can be treated and prevented with preventive (prophylactic) treatment. It is one of the leading causes of death in HIV/AIDS positive patients. Tuberculosis can be seen in two ways, mainly lung tuberculosis and extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis forms other than lung and laryngeal tuberculosis are not contagious. Today, the HIV epidemic and international migration are the main causes of the increase in the number of tuberculosis cases. In this collected work, lung and non-pulmonary forms of tuberculosis, clinical diagnosis, and current developments in diagnosis are summarized.

Keywords : Tuberculosis, pulmonary tuberculosis, extra-pulmonary tuberculosis, diagnosis, new diagnostic tests
