The best way to prevent sequelae of tuberculosis of other organs is to ensure early diagnosis and prompt treatment of tuberculosis. this includes regular screening and medical follow-up for those at risk, such as those with hiv/aids, those with compromised immune systems, and those who have had contact with someone with active tuberculosis. vaccination with the bacillus calmette-guerin (bcg) vaccine is also recommended in some areas to help prevent the spread of tuberculosis.
