The study was performed on 105 patients with and without T2DM and sputum positive for tuberculosis divided into tuberculosis and diabetes mellitus (TBDM) group (55 patients) and tuberculosis without T2DM (TB) group (50 patients). Results were analyzed using detailed clinical history, systemic examination, radiological examination (classified in eleven patterns) and sputum smear examination (grading was done). Results. The mean age of TBDM group was 51.2 ± 8.05 and the group was older than patients in TB group where mean age was 39.5 ± 9.2 years. Duration of T2DM ranged from 6 month to 10 years, with mean 4.21 ± 1.86 years. Hemoptysis was present in 40% of patients of TBDM group.
