[660 cases of histologic extra-pulmonary tuberculosis at the Pasteur Institute in Madagascar].
A 33 months retrospective study (from September 1992 to May 1995) of 8525 patients indicated that the incidence of histologic extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPT) was 7,7%. The 8341 malagasy native patients presented an incidence of 7.8%. Male are more frequently infected than female. Most samples came from Antananarivo, with a prevalence reaching 12,5% while it was only 2,9% in the provinces. Most pathologic EPT were pleural tuberculosis (55,6%) and ganglial tuberculosis (34%). Peritoneal tuberculosis were much less frequent. According to literature data in Madagascar, the incidence of histologic EPT is obviously increasing.
