Mycobacterial Infections

Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affecting the lungs but sometimes spreading to other organs. Most infections remain latent without symptoms, but about 10% progress to active TB if untreated. Active TB causes symptoms such as persistent cough with blood, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. TB remains a major global health concern. Other mycobacterial diseases include leprosy and nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections. Diagnosis relies on laboratory testing, and treatment requires long-term, targeted antibiotics along with strong public health measures to prevent spread.
