ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Determinar las variables relacionadas con el desarrollo de secuelas fibrocavitarias torácicas en pacientes con antecedente de tuberculosis pulmonar en Santander. Métodos: Cohorte retrospectiva de 141 pacientes con diagnóstico previo de tuberculosis, captados mediante muestreo no probabilístico de casos consecutivos en consulta de neumología (Hospital Universitario de Santander). Se realizó un análisis descriptivo, bivariado y multivariado a las variables recolectadas de las historias clínicas. Resultados: El 66% de los pacientes pertenecían al sexo masculino, con una edad promedio de 52 ± 16,91 años, evidenciando un tiempo promedio desde el contagio hasta el momento de la captación de 69 meses y un antecedente de tabaquismo del 46%. El 68% referían tos y se realizó fibrobroncoscopia al 41%. El 89% mostraron algún tipo de secuelas, distribuidas así: Torácicas parenquimatosas 88%, Pleurales 30%, Vías respiratorias 45%, Mediastinales 38% y Vasculares 5%. Fueron variables asociadas a la presencia de alguna secuela la edad del paciente; el tiempo mayor a 17 meses desde el diagnóstico de tuberculosis; la edad de diagnóstico de tuberculosis; la confirmación diagnóstica de tuberculosis por fibrobroncoscopia y síntomas como disnea, cianosis y tos. Discusión: El presente estudio estableció la prevalencia de secuelas de tuberculosis en el 88,65% de los sujetos con tuberculosis curada en Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia. Es el primer estudio en la región en el que se evaluaron factores asociados con el desarrollo de secuelas de tuberculosis, encontrando como factor importante el uso de fibrobroncoscopia como método diagnóstico.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the variables associated with the development of thoracic fibrocavitary sequelae in patients with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis in Santander. Methods: A retrospective cohort of 141 patients previously diagnosed with tuberculosis, recruited using non-probability consecutive sampling at pneumology consultations (Hospital Universitario de Santander). A descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analysis was performed with all the variables collected from the medical records. Results: Sixty-six percent of the patients were males, with an average age of 52+/-16.91 years, evidencing an average time span of 69 months from the moment of the infection to the moment they were recruited, and a history of tobacco use of 46%. Sixty-eight percent stated they had cough and a fibrobronchoscopy was performed in 41%. Eighty-nine percent exhibited some type of sequelae, classified as follows: Parenchymal thoracic 88%, pleural 30%, respiratory tract 45%, mediastinal 38% and vascular 5%. The variables associated with the presence of a sequela were the age of the patient; a period of time exceeding 17 months since the moment of the tuberculosis diagnosis; the age of diagnosis; the diagnostic confirmation of tuberculosis by fibrobronchoscopy and symptoms such as dyspnea, cyanosis and cough. Discussion: This study establishes the incidence of tuberculosis sequelae in 88.65% of the subjects with tuberculosis treated in Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia. It is the first study in the region evaluating the factors associated with the development of tuberculosis sequelae, in which the use of fibrobronchoscopies as a diagnostic method was found to be an important factor.
