Introduction: Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing lineage isolates are considered to be especially virulent, transmissible and prone to acquire resistances. Beijing strains have been reported worldwide, but studies in Latin America are still scarce. The only multinational study performed in the region indicated a heterogeneous distribution for this lineage, which was absent in Chile, Colombia and Ecuador, although further studies found the lineage in Chile and Colombia.Objective: To search for the presence of the Beijing lineage in Ecuador, the only country in the region where it remains unreported.Materials and methods: We obtained a convenience sample (2006-2012) from two hospitals covering different populations. The isolates were genotype...
