For these patients, there are two types of tuberculosis: the âopenâ or pulmonary-positive and âclosedâ or pulmonary-negative tuberculosis. In the case of open tuberculosis an inflammation developed inside the lungs that the immune system is not able to isolate, i.e., bring under control.
Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The bacteria usually attack the lungs, but TB bacteria can attack any part of the body such as the kidney, spine, and brain. Not everyone infected with TB bacteria becomes sick. As a result, two TB-related conditions exist: latent TB infection (LTBI) and TB disease.
