Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) infection is a bacterial disease that can involve almost all organs, especially with lung involvement. This disease, which has been known since ancient times, has come to the fore again, especially with the increase in the number of patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy. Biological drugs, which are very popular treatment options today, have revolutionized the treatment of some hematological and autoimmune diseases. This class of drugs includes monoclonal antibodies (adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab) and antibody fragment (certolizumab). Treatment with biological agents such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha inhibitors is known to be associated with an increased risk of TB. The medical history of the patients who are planned for anti-TNF treatment should be questioned in detail, examined in detail, and chest X-ray should be taken. It should be evaluated for active TB infection or sequelae. TB infection.In this review article, it is aimed to review the current scientific literature.

Özet

Tüberküloz (TB); özellikle akciğer tutulumu ile giden ancak neredeyse tüm organları tutabilen bakteriyel bir hastalıktır. Eski zamanlardan beri bilinen bu hastalık, özellikle immunsüpresif tedavi alan hasta sayılarının artması ile tekrar gündeme gelmiştir. Günümüzde oldukça popüler tedavi seçeneklerinden olan biyolojik ilaçlar; hematolojik, otoimmün hatta malign hastalıkların tedavisinde devrim yaratmıştır. Bu ilaç sınıfı arasında monoklonal antikorlar (adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab) ve antikor fragmanı (certolizumab) sayılabilir. Tümör nekroz faktör (TNF) alfa inhibitörleri gibi biyolojik ajanlarla tedavinin artmış TB riski ile ilişkisi iyi bilinmektedir. Anti-TNF tedavisi planlanan hastaların tıbbi geçmişleri ayrıntılı bir şekilde sorgulanmalı, ayrıntılı muayene edilmeli ve akciğer grafisi çekilmelidir. Aktif TB enfeksiyonu veya sekel TB enfeksiyonu açısından değerlendirilmelidir. Bu derleme yazısında mevcut bilimsel literatürün gözden geçirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
