의사는 환자의 병을 낫게 하는 치료자가 아니라 환자가 병을 극복할 수 있도록 도와주는 가이드 역할을 할 뿐이다. 험준한 히말라야의 풍토와 지리를 잘 알고 있는 셀파가 등반대를 잘 가이드 하여 수많은 역경을 극복하고 정상에 도달할 수 있도록 도와주는 것처럼, 결핵환자를 진료하는 의사의 역할은 결핵에 대한 지식과 경험을 이용해 결핵 환자가 완치에 도달할 수 있도록 곁에서 도와주는 것이라고 생각된다.

결핵은 적절한 처방에 따른 약제를 일정기간동안 규칙적으로 복용하면 완치되는 질환이다. 약을 제대로 복용하지 않을 경우에는 치료실패와 재발이 되며 약제 내성균의 전파, 경제적 손실 그리고 사망까지 초래한다. 따라서 결핵환자의 순응도는 치료처방에 따라 약을 규칙적으로 주워진 기간동안 복용하는 환자의 행동을 의미하며 이것이 결핵치료의 성공여부를 결정짓는 가장 중요한 요인이다. 그래서 결핵치료에 있어서 보다 관심을 기울여야 할 사항은 결핵약제보다는 환자의 순응도를 높이는 데 있다. 이번 달에는 환자에게 교육을 시키므로 내원 약속일을 지키게 하는 등 환자의 순응도를 높이기 위한 방안들을 서술한다

This study analyzed the status of tuberculosis patients in Korea by collecting data from the Statistics Korea and the KDCA's GLOBAL Tuberculosis Report from 2010 to 2018 to find ways to manage tuberculosis patients in Korea and provide basic data on tuberculosis policies. The results are as follows. First, the results of tuberculosis patients in Korea decreased by about 21.3% to 33,796 (65.9%) in 2018 and 26,433 (51.5%) in 2018. Second, the status of tuberculosis patient treatment in Korea was found to be 655 in 2018, an increase of about 160% compared to 2014. Third, the incidence of tuberculosis among adolescents was 1.8% in 2018 for those aged 10 to 14 and 15.0% for those aged 15 to 19, the highest rate of tuberculosis among high school students, Fourth, looking at the incidence of tuberculosis patients by age, subjects in their 60s or older showed a prevalence of tuberculosis by 60% or more, especially elderly tuberculosis patients over 80 years of age. Fifth, the status of the incidence of tuberculosis patients by gender was found to be 1.4 times higher in men than in women in 2018 compared to 2010. Sixth, 1,419 people (75.6%) in Jeollanam-do had the highest prevalence of tuberculosis nationwide, and 99 people (33.4%) in Sejong had the lowest prevalence. Seventh, the number of foreign patients in Korea continued to increase to 1,510 in 2012, increasing to 2,569 in 2016. The results this study indicate the need for rapid and accurate early tuberculosis screening policies and management for tuberculosis relapse patients, high school student, age groups over 60, a group of men such as the military, the elderly over 80, and foreigners.

Backgroud: Traditionally, tuberculous pleurisy has been known to largely develop as primary tuberculosis. However, as the incidence of tuberculosis decrease, recent studies have shown reactivation tuberculosis has become the main cause of tuberculous pleurisy. Methods: 141 cases of tuberculous pleurisy, between January 2003 and February 2006, at the Dankook university hospital. were retrospectively studied. The patients were divided into primary and reactivation tuberculosis. based on the history and radiological characteristics, and the clinical, radiological characteristics at the time of diagnosis and residual pleural thickening after 6 month of chemotherapy were compared between the two groups. Results: 1. Of the 141 tuberculous pleurisy cases, in 135 it was possible to differentiate between primary and reactivation tuberculosis. 2. Of the 135 tuberculous pleurisy cases, 38 (28%) showed a primary tuberculosis pattern, and 98 (72%) showed a reactivation tuberculosis pattern. 3. There were no significant differences between primary and reactivation tuberculosis in relation to age, sex, duration of symptom, amount of pleural effusion, pleural fluid WBC, lymphocyte count, and level of protein, LDH and ADA at the time of diagnosis 4. 124 patients were followed for 6 months after diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy, and there was no significant difference in the residual pleural thickening between primary and reactivation tuberculosis. Conclusion: In South Korea, a reactivation disease is currently a more common cause of tuberculous pleurisy than a primary disease. There was no difference in the clinical characteristics between primary and reactivation tuberculosis.

6$\cdot$25동란 후 결핵환자는 급증하였고, 가난한 국가재정과 한정된 결핵병상으로는 이들을 감당할 수 없어 장기간 병상을 점유한 환자를 강제 퇴원시켜 여수로 집단이주시켰다. 이름하여 결핵자활촌-오갈데 없는 난치환자들의 처절한 몸부림과 우리 모두가 어려웠던 시절의 가슴아픈 사연들.
