 AB    Scattered and extra pulmonary tuberculosis patients coinfected with HIV
       represent in Bujumbura (Burundi) more than 56% of tuberculosis cases.
       The high prevalence of these forms could be explained partly by the
       hospital recruitment, therefore by patients already strongly
       immunocompromised. Performing further examinations as abdominal
       echography, ganglionic biopsy (or firstly a puncture sucking procedure)
       permit to reveal multifocal affections. These examinations provide
       valuable diagnostic arguments specially among the negative
       bacteriological forms.
