Sažetak
Childhood tuberculosis is a unique disease regarding epidemiological and clinical features. The most effective measures to combat the spread of the disease are rapid detection and prompt and effective treatment. As most of the children have negative sputum microscopy, rapid diagnosis can be challenging. In this paper, the data on incidence, treatment, diagnostic and clinical characteristics of children treated for tuberculosis in the University Hospital Centre Split during 22 years are presented.
