ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological behavior of tuberculosis in the human population in the state of Queretaro, Mexico. Information was obtained from TB state´s registries for the years 2001-2005. Case was defined as any patient with samples positive to any of the following: presence of bacillus acid-alcohol resistant, culture, TB-compatible lesions by histopathology, clinical or radiological evaluation. The total number of cases was 1, 109; 67.6% pulmonar and 32.4 extrapulmonar. Cumulative incidence by year was almost constant; it went from 195 to 262, while the incidence rate by 100, 000 inhabitants went from 13.1 to 17.6. Both, incidence rate and death rate increased with age; it went from 4.4% in patients 14 years-old and younger to 67% in patients 65 years old and older. Most casualties were due pulmonary TB, 76%, followed by milliar TB, 10%. Partial information about occupation reports that 23% of cases were related to activities in agriculture and livestock management. Higher morbidity and mortality rates were observed in counties with high rates of poverty and cold during the winter. A discussion about deficiencies in registries and data bases is included.
