The aim of study was to determine a number of alcoholics in new diagnosed cases of bacteriological confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis in 1989-1990. Data were obtained from the Central Register of Tuberculosis. It was found that the number of alcoholics among new registered patients with tuberculosis increased from 8.8% to 10.5%. Young patients were more than 60% group. Results of treatment of severe types of pulmonary tuberculosis in alcoholics were also not so effective as in typical patients.
