title: [Modified subcutaneous tuberculin test in the diagnosis of tuberculosis of the male genital organs].
abstract: Efficiency of the clinical use of a new procedure for estimating the host focal response to subcutaneous administration of 50 TU of OT was studied in 121 patients. The procedure is based on measuring conductivity in the zones of lowered resistance on the scrotum skin and over the prostate at the background of a provocative tuberculin test performed with apparatus Elektronika-Elita-4M. The procedure provided positive effects in 85 per cent of the patients with tuberculosis of the external genitalia and in 50 per cent of the patients with specific inflammation of the prostate.
