Introduction: Tuberculosis is a prevalent disease worldwide. Even though there are several guidelines on diagnosis and treatment, there is very scarce information on the social determinants of this disease. Social determinants are all the socio-demographic conditions that influence the development of any condition. Among the least studied determinants is the stigma in tuberculosis. Aims: to determine the levels of social stigma associated to the self-reported diagnosis of tuberculosis in patients attending the health facilities of San Juan de Miraflores, Lima Peru between 2017 and 2019. Methods: A cross sectional quantitative analytic study was done in the population attending the San Juan de Miraflores health facilities. A survey was used for collecting data. A total of 132 patients were included, 36 with self-reported tuberculosis and 96 without. Results: we found differences in the level of social stigma in the population with and without self-reported diagnosis of tuberculosis, but without statistical significance (p=0.089). Conclusion: our study did not find association between the level of social stigma for tuberculosis and self-reported tuberculosis.
