title: [Tuberculosis in Bergamo Province. Statistical estimates for the quadrennium 1984-1987].
abstract: The clinical files of patients admitted to the Ospedali Riuniti of Bergamo between January 1984 and December 1987 in which the presence of mycobacteria has been demonstrated have been reviewed. We have analysed the clinical pattern and the complicating diseases and we have reported the typing of mycobacteria in comparison with the literature data. We stress the danger of mycobacterial infections particularly in patients who are in an immunodepressed state.
