OTOTOXICITY IN MDR-TB PATIENTS ON CATEGORY-4 REGIMEN: A CASE REPORT
Multiple drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a critical situation affecting adults as properly as children across the globe (1). To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with Multiple Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) (2), we studied Ototoxicity on 18 culture confirmed MDR-TB patients in Eras' Lucknow Medical College and Hospital, Lucknow from September, 2019 to January, 2020. This case follows a well documented report of a patient describing an unusual and novel occurrence of ototoxicity when undergoing treatment concerning multiple drug resistance tuberculosis along with symptoms, signs, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up (3). For descriptive convenience, the patient will be classified as patient 1. The following case is the cornerstones of medical progress and provides many new ideas in medicine. Containing an extensive review of the relevant literature on the topic, the case report is a rapid short communication between busy clinicians who may not have time or resources to conduct large scale research.(4)
