Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The correlation of the morphologic, microbiological, genetic and histopathological characteristics of TB lesions obtained in therapeutical surgery with the clinical forms and features of the patients will provide essential information

1. on the role of the host in the mechanisms associated to the generation and evolution of active TB and
2. about future diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers of TB disease. All this information could be used for patients stratification and/or to design new therapeutic strategies.
