Methods: cross-sectional study. A total of 12656 professionals from family health strategy teams were analysed, measured by External Evaluation of the Program for Access and Quality Improvement in Primary Care, where there were cases of tuber-culosis. Data analysis was performed using chi-square and Kruskal Wallis tests to verify association between variables and municipality sizes. Research was approved by Ethics in Research Committee - Protocol #21904. Results: significant difference between access, coor-dination of care, technical quality of attention to tuberculosis and municipality size was observed (p <0.001). Conclusion: characteristics of structure and care process in control of tuberculosis are related to municipal population sizeAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/tuberculoseatenção primária à saúdeestratégia saúde da famíliaavaliação de serviços de saúdetuberculosisprimary health carefamily health strategyhealth services evaluationatención primaria de saludevaluación de servicios de saludestrategia de salud familiarTuberculose no Brasil: relação entre porte populacional, estrutura e processoTuberculosis in Brazil: the relationship between population size, structure and processTuberculosis en Brasil: relación entre el tamaño de la población, la estructura y el procesoarticlehttps://doi.org/10.12957/reuerj.2017.17284
