ABSTRACT
Background: Tuberculosis is a public health problem,
extrapulmonary presentations have increased, it is
difficult to diagnose because of the low bacillary load.
Objective: To identify risk factors and to evaluate the
efficiency of diagnostic methods in pleural, meningeal,
peritoneal and pericardial tuberculosis.
Methods: Prospective study of cases and controls. A
multiple conditional logistic regression model was used
to identify risk factors. Biopsy was performed and 7 mL
of fluid was extracted from the affected site, Löwestein-
Jensen and MGITI960 culture, Ziehl-Neelsen staining,
adenosine deaminase and endpoint PCR directed to the
insertion sequence 1S6110 for
M. tuberculosis were
performed.
Results: 116 patients were included, in 58 M.
tuberculosis was confirmed by positive culture
(meningeal Tb 34 cases, pleural 14, peritoneal 8,
pericardial 2 cases) and 58 serositis of non-tuberculous
etiology. Being a carrier of HIV and living with people
infected with tuberculosis were the main risk factors OR
= 3.6 and OR = 6.8. The staining had sensitivity of
25.9%, PCR of 65.5% and adenosine deaminase with
82.8%.
Conclusions: Conventional diagnostic methods had low
efficacy, adenosine deaminase and molecular biology
techniques are the most useful, in our environment these
tests should be performed immediately in patients with
risk factors and suspected serositis of tuberculous origin.
