Abstract

Tuberculosis ranges among the most important causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The emergence of drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, especially in the WHO Region Europe, is of serious concern. Recently, important advances have been achieved in the areas of tuberculosis prevention, diagnosis and treatment and in the management of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Recent highlights are being presented in this mini-review.
