<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P</span>&#61;&#46;70&#41;&#46; These rates are not much lower than the cure rates for the whole population of patients in the region during the period of study &#40;75&#37;&#41;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span>&#59; in the majority of cases that were not cured the cause was not failure of the therapy but failure to complete the treatment&#46; These results are consistent with those of other authors who have found that resistance to 1 or 2 drugs&#44; not including rifampicin&#44; does not imply a worse prognosis in short therapeutic regimens using 4 drugs&#44; and that initial detection of resistance to H&#44; S&#44; or HS does not necessarily mean changing the length of treatment if the patient shows clinical improvement&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15-17</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">An extensive study carried out in 6 very different parts of the world found significantly lower cure rates in previously treated patients than in new patients&#44; whether susceptible or resistant&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> However&#44; new patients resistant to H &#40;excluding MDR&#41; had a similar cure rate to susceptible new patients &#40;83&#37; compared to 85&#37;&#41;&#46; This may be one of the reasons why our study did not detect differences in cure rates between new and previously treated patients &#40;given that 95&#37; of the resistances were to H and&#47;or S&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The limitations of this study should be taken into account&#46; First&#44; as already stated&#44; its retrospective design may have led to errors in classification&#46; Second&#44; as the regimens were not standardized and there were no precise guidelines&#44; it was the attending physician who decided the length of treatment in a way that was not always explicit&#46; Lastly&#44; a greater number of relapses might have been detected if patients had been monitored actively and for longer periods&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In conclusion&#44; cure rates for patients with SDR and PDR pulmonary TB&#44; whether new or previously treated&#44; were not much lower than those of susceptible patients in the same region&#46; A large number of patients in both groups were not cured but this was due to the high rate of failure to complete treatment rather than to failure of the treatment itself&#46; It is unlikely that higher cure rates can be attained in this area unless a form of directly observed treatment using a short-course of antibiotics is used&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Acknowledgments and Dedications</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We are grateful for the help given by Teresa Equisuany in collecting and ordering the data&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We dedicate this article to Dayana Rodr&#237;guez&#44;

cases &#40;&#62;85&#47;100 000 per year&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> A joint study by the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease &#40;IUATLD&#41; and the World Health Organization &#40;WHO&#41; established that&#44; out of all the Latin American countries&#44; Bolivia had the second highest prevalence of primary resistance to anti-TB drugs from 1994 through 1997&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The aim of the present study was to evaluate the results of treatment in people suffering from pulmonary TB in the city of Santa Cruz de la Sierra&#44; Bolivia&#44; who were resistant to one anti-TB drug &#40;single drug resistant &#91;SDR&#93;&#41; or to several drugs &#40;polydrug resistant &#91;PDR&#93;&#41;&#59; we excluded combined resistance to isoniazid &#40;H&#41;

For many years it has headed the list for new TB cases and has also had one of the lowest cure rates&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span> In Santa Cruz de la Sierra&#44; the capital of the department&#44; there are 2 broncho-pulmonary care centers financed by the local Red Cross and a German institution &#40;Kuratorium Tuberculose in der Welt&#41;&#46; These care centers are responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of TB patients living in 2 parts of the city that contain approximately 53&#37; of the population &#40;about 450 000 inhabitants&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span> The fact that a sputum sample was taken systematically from each patient with pulmonary TB for culturing and studies of susceptibility to various anti-TB drugs enabled us to identify patients with SDR or PDR forms in the first sample of sputum&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In 1996 we examined the case histories of all patients treated in these centers from 1983 through 1993 whose sputum culture had produced SDR or PDR strains of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Myobacterium tuberculosis</span>&#46; For each patient we recorded demographic variables&#44; the results of microbiological analyses&#44; therapeutic regimens&#44; the number of visits made&#44; x-ray observations&#44; treatment outcome&#44; and the number of months of follow up at the center &#40;until cure&#44; end of treatment&#44; death&#44; failure to complete&#44; or transfer&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Microbiology</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The normal procedure at the centers is to obtain 3 sputum samples from each patient for microscopic examination and diagnosis and a monthly sample during treatment and to grow a culture on the first sample and repeat the process during treatment every time the microscopic results are negative&#46; Microbes are cultured on L&#246;wenstein-Jensen medium and recoveries of mycobacteria are confirmed by microscopic examination&#46; When a culture is positive with more than 10 colonies present after 6 weeks of incubation&#44; it is tested for susceptibility to H&#44; streptomycin &#40;S&#41;&#44; R&#44; ethambutol &#40;E&#41;&#44; and protionamide &#40;Pt&#41; using the proportion method&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span> The critical concentrations of drugs that differentiate the susceptible bacilli from the resistant ones are as follows&#58;

The treatments for resistant forms of TB were not standardized&#44; but rather were prescribed individually&#46; Some second-line anti-TB drugs were available and once the results of the susceptibility studies were known&#44; patients who did not respond to the initial regimen &#40;standard or retreatment&#41; were prescribed at least 2 drugs to which they were not resistant or which they had not previously taken&#59; the length of the treatment was decided in each individual case but was never less than 7 months&#46;

This phenomenon was soon detected in the 1940s&#44; shortly after the treatment of pulmonary TB started using streptomycin only&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span> Mitchinson<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span> has proposed 4 mechanisms that might explain this selection of resistant mutations&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The objective of the present study was to establish the prognosis of pulmonary TB patients with any kind of resistance except MDR who live in a city in a very poor country but who receive treatment in an institution with exceptional resources not available to patients in other similar areas&#58; second-line anti-TB drugs and a laboratory that grows cultures and performs susceptibility studies systematically on all patients&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">It was not possible to establish the percentage of resistant patients because we did not know the total number of patients identified during the first 3 years of the study &#40;only 5 resistant patients were detected during this period&#41;&#46; During the 10 years from 1986 through 1995 the proportion of patients with any kind of resistance among the 3518 new patients was 10&#37; &#40;annual variation&#58; 8&#37;&#173;-16&#37;&#41; while among the 957 previously treated patients it was 37&#37; &#40;annual variation&#58; 23&#37;&#173;-59&#37;&#41;&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Resistance to H&#44; S&#44; and the HS combination accounted for the great majority &#40;95&#37;&#41; of the resistances detected&#46; This rate is not surprising as these are the longest used anti-TB drugs in Bolivia and it is consistent with the surveys carried out by the WHO and the IUATLD&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The percentage of new patients that had not been treated previously was very high and&#44; as is to be expected&#44; it was higher among SDR patients &#40;<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P</span>&#60;&#46;05&#41;&#44; a group with what was previously referred to as having primary resistance&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span> It must be said&#44; however that ours was a retrospective study and new and previously treated patients may therefore not have been clearly differentiated when a detailed&#44; unhurried initial interview had not been performed&#46; Even when such interviews occurred&#44; however&#44; the fact that a large number of patients had little formal education and only spoke indigenous languages could still have led to errors in classification&#46; We must also take into account that in the area studied there was a certain degree of therapeutic anarchy that might be the cause of a large percentage of the resistances seen in new patients&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The patients who were cured attended a similar number of sessions&#44; had a similar number of x-rays and their cures took no longer than those of the susceptible patients who attended the same care centers&#46; The cure rate tended to be higher for SDR patients than for PDR patients &#40;nonsignificant&#44; <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P</span>&#61;&#46;70&#41;&#46; These rates are not much lower than the cure rates for the whole population of patients in the region during the period of study &#40;75&#37;&#41;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span>&#59; in the majority of cases that were not cured the cause was not failure of the therapy but failure to complete the treatment&#46; These results are consistent with those of other authors who have found that resistance to 1 or 2 drugs&#44; not including rifampicin&#44; does not imply a worse prognosis in short therapeutic regimens using 4 drugs&#44; and that initial detection of resistance to H&#44; S&#44; or HS does not necessarily mean changing the length of treatment if the patient shows clinical improvement&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15-17</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">An extensive study carried out in 6 very different parts of the world found significantly lower cure rates in previously treated patients than in new patients&#44; whether susceptible or resistant&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> However&#44; new patients resistant to H &#40;excluding MDR&#41; had a similar cure rate to susceptible new patients &#40;83&#37; compared to 85&#37;&#41;&#46; This may be one of the reasons why our study did not detect differences in cure rates between new and previously treated patients &#40;given that 95&#37; of the resistances were to H and&#47;or S&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The limitations of this study should be taken into account&#46; First&#44; as already stated&#44; its retrospective design may have led to errors in classification&#46; Second&#44; as the regimens were not standardized and there were no precise guidelines&#44; it was the attending physician who decided the length of treatment in a way that was not always explicit&#46; Lastly&#44; a greater number of relapses might have been detected if patients had been monitored actively and for longer periods&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In conclusion&#44; cure rates for patients with SDR and PDR pulmonary TB&#44; whether new or previously treated&#44; were not much lower than those of susceptible patients in the same region&#46; A large number of patients in both groups were not cured but this was due to the high rate of failure to complete treatment rather than to failure of the treatment itself&#46; It is unlikely that higher cure rates can be attained in this area unless a form of directly observed treatment using a short-course of antibiotics is used&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Acknowledgments and Dedications</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We are grateful for the help given by Teresa Equisuany in collecting and ordering the data&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We dedicate this article to Dayana Rodr&#237;guez&#44;
