Tuberculosis is a major global health problem. It causes health problems among millions of people every year and is the main cause of morbidity in many regions, so the understanding of its effect on quality of life and health status is important for patient care. Objective: Identify the association between quality of life and degree of radiological sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis in patients treated by the neumology department of the National Hospital Hipolito Unanue in 2016. The Quality of Life test SF36 was applied, the test was validated by Salazar and Bernabe in 2012; in addition the degree of radiological sequelae is classified according to Willcox. Methods: CObservational, quantitative, analytical and transverse study. We surveyed 162 patients treated by the neumology department with the clinical antecedent of pulmonary tuberculosis in the National Hospital Hipolito Unanue in 2016. Results: Pearson's correlation was -0.157, which means that there is a negative relation between quality of life and degree of pulmonary sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis. Statistical significance was also found since P = 0.046 (P <0.05). Conclusions: There is an association between quality of life and radiological sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis, but this is a weak negative correlation.
