[Deaths of patients with tuberculosis in combination with HIV infection from various causes, other than tuberculosis].
The structure of tuberculosis patients with HIV infection who died from any causes, other than tuberculosis, in the Sverdlovsk Region in 2000-2006 did not differ from that of patients with concurrent pathology who died from tuberculosis. The general health care facilities had revealed tuberculosis during life in most patients who died from terminal-stage HIV infection; at death these patients had endstage HIV infection which tuberculosis joined to 4 years or more after HIV infection registration. A fatal outcome in 88.1% of the patients died from the terminal stage of HIV infection was observed within the first year after tuberculosis detection, in half the cases the background disease being generalized tuberculosis at autopsy; every two patients discharged microorganisms during life, drug resistance in the causative agent of tuberculosis was found in every three patients. Half the patients who died from other causes, other than HIV infection and tuberculosis lost their life within the first year after registration of the tuberculous process. Lifetime bacterial discharge was recorded in half the patients; drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis has developed a third of the patients with comorbidity who died from other causes, other than tuberculosis and HIV infection. The volume of lifetime specialized care for HIV infection to deceased patients with comorbidity had been inadequate. The importance of the problem of notification of cases, when the autopsy background disease was tuberculosis in comorbidity patients not included into the regional tuberculosis morbidity and mortality statistics, will increase with further development of the epidemics of tuberculosis and HIV infection to the Svedlovsk Region.
