The epidemiological situation of tuberculosis in the Russian Federation is improving, but at the same time there is an increase in the proportion of elderly tuberculosis patients. Due to the anatomical and physiological characteristics of patients in old age and concomitant diseases, the tuberculosis clinic is atypical, which is an urgent problem for the timely diagnosis of tuberculosis.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;The goal of this study is to study the features of the tuberculosis clinic of various forms and localizations in patients over 75 years of age with newly diagnosed tuberculosis in 2013-2023.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Materials and methods. We used the method of a continuous cohort study of newly diagnosed tuberculosis patients over 75 years of age in 2013-2023. Retrospective and prospective observation was carried out in 19 patients. Clinical data, X-ray archive and medical documentation have been studied. Statistical data processing was performed using Statistica 12.0.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Results. Between 2013 and 2023, there were 19 cases of tuberculosis in patients over the age of 75. The disseminated form (42.1%) and the infiltrative form (21.1%) were more common. The process was widespread in 73.7% of cases, bacterial excretion in 63.2% of cases. There were 3-4 concomitant diseases, clinically significant in 50% of patients.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Conclusions. Tuberculosis in people over 75 years of age occurs in the form of various forms of tuberculosis, with a predominance of disseminated. The process is common with bacterial excretion against the background of 3-4 diseases that "mask" tuberculosis.&lt;/p&gt;</abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>tuberculosis of the elderly</kwd><kwd>old age</kwd><kwd>tuberculosis</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>туберкулез пожилых</kwd><kwd>старческий возраст</kwd><kwd>туберкулез</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Нечаева О.
