The paper analyzes the results of the 1995-to-2006 follow-ups of 36 children with extrapulmonary tuberculosis. Tuberculosis of the kidney, peripheral lymph nodes, and skeletal system was diagnosed in 16, 11, and 6 patients, respectively. Generalized tuberculosis was present in 1 child and cutaneous tuberculosis in 2. A contact with a tuberculosis patient, significant or progressive tuberculin sensitivity, and a lower BCG vaccination efficiency were the most important risk factors of the disease. The history of nonspecific renal and urinary tract diseases was a significant risk factor of nephrotuberculosis. The priority lines in the detection of extrapulmonary tuberculosis in children include planned systematic tuberculin diagnosis, a followup of persons who are in contact with patients with active tuberculosis, as well as dynamic bacteriological and histological studies of autoptic and biological materials.
