Tuberculosis, CBNAAT, Cytology.
Cytology, Ziehl Neelsen staining and Mantoux test are conventionally used to test and treat tuberculosis. Cartridge Based Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (CBNAAT) is being now recommended for diagnosis of all tuberculosis. Aims and Objectives: To asses efficacy of various diagnostic tools for diagnosis of tuberculosis. Material and Methods : It was a prospective study conducted by including all consecutive patients suggestive of tuberculosis. Fine needle aspirate was subjected for cytology and CBNAAT. Results were tabulated. Results: Two hundred patients were included along with patients having caseous aspiration. 103 (51.5%) had mycobacterium detected in CBNAAT. Remaining patients after histology had following diagnosis. Conclusion: CBNAAT is an effective tool for diagnosing tuberculosis even in early stages of pathology. Relying solely on cytology to diagnose tuberculosis should be discouraged.
