    This document outlines the stages and timeline of a tuberculosis (TB) infection. It shows that a primary TB infection is usually self-limited within 3-24 months. During this time, the infection can cause local complications or disseminate, leading to conditions like pleural effusion within 3-6 months or bronchial erosion within 3-9 months. Without treatment, the infection may later reactivate and cause extrapulmonary TB, such as meningitis within 3 years or skeletal TB within 5 years. Miliary TB, which involves dissemination throughout the body, may occur within 1 year.
