This is probably due to the fact that most forms of EPTB do not contribute to the transmission of tuberculosis. However, EPTB significantly contributes to TB-related morbidity and may be a direct cause of complications, sequelae and lifelong disabilities.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">There are many factors that may contribute to a delay in the diagnosis of EPTB. EPTB has highly heterogeneous manifestation. Therefore, patients are often observed by different specialists, with little experience in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Obtaining diagnostic samples can be another obstacle, since it is often necessary to use invasive methods to obtain samples and laboratory diagnostic tests for the EPTB have lower yield in extrapulmonary samples. The concepts inherent to EPTB treatment are similar to those of PTB, however there are specific situations that require specific interventions such as corticosteroids as adjunctive therapy or extending the duration of treatment.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">It is clear that clinicians should be aware of the risks factors associated with this disease as this is the first step toward diagnosing EPTB. The correctly and timely fashion in which the various forms of EPTB are diagnosed is crucial as it can minimize the morbidity and mortality of these patients.</p><a name="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Methods</span><p class="elsevierStylePara">In order to identify the most common determinants associated with extrapulmonary involvement in tuberculosis patients, a retrospective study was carried out between January/2008 and January/2012.

Patients with both PTB and EPTB were included in the group of EPTB.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We analyzed demographics, co-morbidities, immunossuppressive therapies and existence of previous TB treatment.

Age over 40 years old (OR = 2.09; 95%CI: 1.29–3.38), female gender (OR = 1.63; 95%CI = 1.02–2.6) and HIV infection (OR = 2.72, 95%CI = 1.25–5.93) were independent risk factors for EPTB. Alcoholism (OR = 2.22, 95%CI: 1.00–4.95) was associated with higher risk for PTB. Previous liver disease (OR = 22.30; 95%IC: 1.89–263.57) was an independent risk factor for peritoneal TB. HIV co-infection (OR = 12.97; 95%IC: 1.71–48.42) and the presence of previous TB treatment (OR = 7.62; 95%IC: 1.00–57.9) increase the risk of disseminated disease.</p><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Conclusion</span><br/><p class="elsevierStylePara">We identified independent risk factors for EPTB.
