A marked increase in the number of multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) cases entirely related to patients born in the Former Soviet Union was observed in France in the last two years. Very few cases were clustered, suggesting it is a consequence of recent immigration of patients already infected in their country of origin. This major increase challenges the existing structures for management of MDR and extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB).
在过去两年中,法国观察到耐多药(MDR)结核病(TB)病例数量显著增加,这些病例与出生在前苏联的患者完全相关。极少数病例呈聚集性,这表明这是最近原籍国已感染的患者移民的后果。这种大幅增加对管理耐多药和广泛耐药结核病(XDR-TB)的现有结构构成了挑战。
