Tuberculosis remains, according to the WHO report, one of the global problems in the world, especially in the form caused by drug-resistant mycobacteria. The identification of special biochemical markers allowing to assess the necessity of surgery or therapy prolongation remains a challenge. We consider promising markers – metalloproteinases – analyzing statistics of data obtained from patients with pulmonary tuberculosis forced by different strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The discussed results could be used for further development of a precise biochemical data-based diagnostic and prognostic tool.
