PULMONARY
TUBERCULOSIS

INTRODUCTION

• An infectious bacterial disease characterized by
  the growth of nodules (tubercles) in the tissues,
  especially the lungs.
• Tuberculosis, commonly known as TB, is
  a bacterial infection that can spread through the
  lymph nodes and bloodstream to any organ in your
  body. It is most often found in the lungs.
•  Most people who are exposed to TB never develop
  symptoms because the bacteria can live in an
  inactive form in the body.
• TB bacteria can become active. In their active
  state, TB bacteria cause death of tissue in the
  organs they infect. Active TB disease can be
  fatal if left untreated.

ETIOLOGY

• The disease can be contagious. Infection is most
  likely to occur if you are exposed to someone
  with TB on a day-to-day basis, such as by living
  or working in close quarters with someone who has
  the active disease. 
• The remaining will have what's called latent TB
  infection -- they show no signs of infection and
  won't be able to spread the disease to others,
  unless their disease becomes active.
• These latent infections can eventually become
  active, even people without symptoms should
  receive medical treatment.Medication can help get
  rid of the inactive bacteria before they become
  active.
