Abstract

Background and Objective: Due to the increase of INCIDENCE of EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS in Iran, This study was conducted to determine the epidemiological pattern of EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS in the Mazandaran province, northern Iran.Methods: This descriptive-analytic study was carried out on medical record of 3313 tuberculosis patients in Mazandaran province, northern Iran during 2001-11. AGE, GENDER, affected year, area and affected organ were gathered for each patient.Results: 843 (25.4%) of subjects were diagnosed with EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS. The INCIDENCE of EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS increased by 4% for every unit increase in INCIDENCE year (P<0.05). The mean AGE of patients with EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS was significantly less than patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (42.8±20.6 years vs. 48.7±21.2, P<0.05). EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS was significantly higher in women (P<0.05). The chance of EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS in women was 1.7 times of men. LYMPH NODE (33%) was the most common affected organ followed by pleura (18.9%) and bone (17.7%).Conclusion: The trend of INCIDENCE of EXTRAPULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS was ascending during 2001 to 2011. The most affected organ in extra pulmonary tuberculosis was LYMPH NODEs.
