Abstract

The article presents the results of a survey of 903 (523 boys and 380 girls) children with tuberculosis aged 2 to 10 years who are being treated at the Andijan regional tuberculosis dispensary.

Clinical forms of respiratory tuberculosis in children were mainly represented by tuberculosis of the intra-thoracic lymph nodes.

Tuberculosis in children developed, as a rule, during the first year after contact with the bacterial excretory agent, both with the presence of drug sensitivity of the pathogen and with its multidrug resistance.
