Tuberculosis (TB) is a global health problem especially in the Indian subcontinent imposing significant physical, psychosocial and economic burden on the society. Most national programs define TB cure as completion of treatment with improvement in clinical symptoms, microbiological and radiological clearance. However, follow up these patients for long-term sequelae or complications has not got adequate attention. Post-TB lung disease, neurological deficits and spinal deformities are some of the post-TB sequelae reported in adults, with scanty data available for children. With this review authors attempt to discuss various post-TB disease manifestations and the risk factors associated with their development in children. They address the need to create awareness amongst physicians involved in managing children with TB and obtain more scientific data in this field.

儿童结核后后遗症

结核病(TB)是一个全球性的健康问题,特别是在印度次大陆,给社会带来重大的身体、心理和经济负担。大多数国家计划将结核病治愈定义为完成治疗并改善临床症状、微生物学和放射学清除率。然而,对这些患者的长期后遗症或并发症的随访并未得到足够的重视。结核病后肺部疾病、神经功能缺损和脊柱畸形是成人结核病后遗症的一些报告,但儿童的数据很少。在这篇综述中,作者试图讨论各种结核病后表现以及与其儿童发育相关的危险因素。它们解决了提高参与治疗结核病儿童的医生的认识并获取该领域更多科学数据的需要。
