title: [Female genital tract tuberculosis].
abstract: The frequency of female genital tract tuberculosis exhibits a parallelism that of pulmonary tuberculosis in the population. It is generally found in reproductive women, but also occurs in postmenopausal ones. Its frequency has declined since the introduction of specific treatment, but it is discovered incidentally during the course of an investigation for infertility. The most common location is in fallopian tubes. In the Department of Pathology from the Medical School of Cumhuriyet University 11 female genital tract tuberculosis have been described between the years of 1984 and 1990. In this study, age, symptoms, localizations and pathological findings of these cases have been reviewed.
