The results of studies are conformed that prevalence of IHD among males with tuberculosis is not changed during this period and remained on relatively high level from 21.0-31.9%. Practically every 5th male with tuberculosis has clinical signs of IHD that could be considered as a support of necessity of joint simultaneous treatment of tuberculosis and IHD.
