[Tuberculosis in the field of gynecology].
Recently few cases as to female genital tuberculosis were reported, therefore it is considered that the incidence of the female genital tuberculosis was decreased. However it is important to make a right diagnosis of tuberculosis, because the tuberculosis in the female sexual organs is one of the factors of female sterility. The diagnosis is needed to examine bacteriologically or pathologically. The diagnosed genital tract or pelvic tuberculosis was treated by anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy firthtly and by surgical procedures in case of necessity.
