Gambaran Foto Toraks Tuberkulosis Paru Genotipe Beijing dan Non-Beijing

Abstract

Beijing genotype Mycobacterium tuberculosis has higher virulence, spread globally, and more resistant compare with non Beijing. Observational analytic study with cross sectional design to determine the thoracic photos profile of the two genotypes, was done September 2003–December 2005 at Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung. Thoracic photos were analyzed by two radiologists. Subjects consisted of 206 men and 196 women comprising of 131 Beijing and 271 non Beijing. The mean age was 31 years. Thoracic photo description by observer I on Beijing showed 60 (45.8%) mild and 71 (54.2%) severe; non Beijing 205 (75.6%) mild and 66 (24.4%) severe. Observer II were 62 (47.3 %) mild and 69 (52.7%) severe of Beijing; 208 (76.8%) and 63 (23.2%) non Beijing, respectively. There was significant difference between Beijing and non Beijing (p 0.05). Similarity description from two radiologist was 265 of 270 in mild, and 132 of 137 in severe ( >0.80). In conclusion, thoracic photos of Beijing genotype is significantly more severe with more cavitation.
