Indications for surgical treatment in genito-urinary tuberculosis.

Proper methods of surgical treatment effect arrest of localized tuberculosis in 90 per cent of cases, but as early and latent renal tuberculosis can be controlled in 50 per cent of cases by conservative treatment, careful deliberation as to choice of method of treatment is necessary in each case. In some circumstances, operation is definitely contraindicated. These observations apply also to tuberculosis elsewhere in the urogenital tract. When surgical treatment is carried out, careful preoperative and postoperative medical care is an important factor.The primary site of urogenital tuberculosis is the kidney, from which organ the infection spreads to the ureter, the bladder and the prostate gland. The prostate gland is the initial site of invasion in the genital tract, extension to other genital structures following. This sequence of infection is an important consideration in determining the management of urogenital tuberculosis.
