Tuberculosis is a contagious disease which propagates by air. It is connected to poverty and affects especially productive
young adults in developing countries. In 2009, Tuberculosis caused 1.7 million deaths. It is among the most three causes of
death in women between 15 to 44 years old. The evaluation was based on the surveillance criteria of CDC/Atlanta. Informations
were collected on a form for the period from 2008 to 2011. Health workers were interviewed using a questionnaire.We used
excel software for analysis. On a total of 36 investigated health workers, 21 (58%) need less than 10 minutes to fill the notification
form, 29(80%) accept the surveillance as their daily work with 28956 filled items on a total of 29 384; 88% (32/36) of reports
are verified by another person. A place is planned for monitoring of other diseases on all notification forms. From 56, 513
made samples 10, 201 are positive. The surveillance system worked continuously during all the period of the study. The routine
tuberculosis surveillance system in the Lingwala heath District is flexible, acceptable, and useful with a positive predictive
value of 18 % as well as 87.5 % of validity and a weak representativeness of 42.8 %. It is integrated but presents the risk of
distortion and lack of informations. It requires a strengthening of resources and the integration of private health facilities.
