ABSTRACT

Tuberculosis is the leader cause of death attributable to a single microorganism worldwide. The mortality of drug-resistant tuberculosis ranges between 40 and 70%, higher than some types of cancer. The World Health Organization recommends as of august 2018 a new treatment scheme for drug-resistant tuberculosis; although, part of the new groups, such as the group A, includes drugs like bedaquiline, which has few studies in children. The aim of our work is to describe the studies carried out in children on each group of drugs and the treatment schemes.
