tuberculosis, lambliosis (giardiasis), combined course.Abstract
Despite of the being taken anti-TB measures, the prevalence of tuberculosis in Ukraine still remains high, especially in regions that are endemic to parasitic infections.
The aim of the study – to identify the prevalence of lambliosis (giardiasis) among patients with tuberculosis.
Patients and methods. Under the supervision were 82 patients with tuberculosis (TB) treated at the Ternopil Regional TB Dispensary during 2016–2017. Men (79.3 %) and the inhabitants of the village (73.2 %) dominated.
In all patients the diagnosis of TB was confirmed bacteriologically or by DNA detection (PCR), in 2 patients with breast tuberculosis and TB meningitis − histologically. Liamblia intestinalis were detected by stool microscopy.
Conclusions. Accompanying lambliosis is probably one of the aggravating factors in the course of tuberculosis. Elimination of invasion in patients with tuberculosis may also allow the adjusting of development of adverse reactions to anti-tuberculosis drugs.References
