Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To study the contribution of exogenous reinfection to tuberculosis recurrence. METHODS: Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from patients who had experienced 2 successive tuberculosis episodes during the years from January 1999 to March 2004 were genotyped by mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units (MIRU) method. The cause of tuberculosis recurrence was determined by comparing the MIRU pattern of...
