Tuberculosis commonly affects the lungs, but it can also affect any other organ of the body such as brain, intestine, kidneys or the spine.
Tuberculosis is one of the most ancient disease of mankind for more than four thousand years. It is a chronic disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and spreads from person to person through air. The new modalities are very much helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis, Unfortunately people are still suffering with this disease. Worldwide it is among the top ten killer infectious disease secondly to HIV and COVID 19. According to World Health Organisation(WHO) tuberculosis is a global pandemic.
The present study shows a very strong significant for the assess of serum procalcitonin, adenosine deaminse, lactate dehydrogenase, calcium, phosphorus and thyroid stimulation hormone in tuberculosis patients.

Keywords: Serum procalcitonin, Adenosine deaminase, Lactate dehydrogenase, Calcium, Phosphorus and thyroid stimulation
hormone, Tuberculosis patients.
