extensively drug resistant tuberculosis XDR-TB
médic.	A relatively rare type of multiple drug resistant tuberculosis MDR-TB. Extensively drug resistant tuberculosis XDR-TB occurs when a Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain becomes resistant to drugs used to treat TB, including the two most effective first-line antibiotics isoniazid and rifampin and most of the second-line drugs. XDR-TB progresses more rapidly and is more severe in people coinfected with HIV than in people infected with XDR-TB alone. voir également multiple drug resistant tuberculosis, mycobacterium tuberculosis, tuberculosis
