          Abstract

          Iran has extended borders with high-TB burden countries (Afghanistan and Pakistan) and immigrations of these populations influences TB distribution in the region and threatens the control strategies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of recent TB transmission among Iranian and Afghan cases.
