title: [Low-energy laser therapy in combined treatment of of patients with urinary tuberculosis].
abstract: 62 patients received polychemotherapy for tuberculosis of the kidney (control group) and 88 patients with the same diagnosis received the same polychemotherapy plus local laser therapy (study group). Efficiency of the treatment in the control group was 40.4 +/- 6.3%, in the study group--76.5 +/- 4.7%. Thus, the effect in the group with laser radiation was by 36.1% higher than in the controls. Indices of urinalysis, bacterial discharge and intoxication to the end of the hospital stay differed significantly (p < 0.05).
