title: [Lymphotropic therapy with antitubercular agents in the treatment of tuberculous epididymitis].
abstract: Whether endolymphatic intranodular injection (ELII) of isoniazid can be used in the combined treatment of male genital tuberculosis is considered. Clinical trials were performed and this method used in the combined treatment of tuberculous epididymitis was assessed. The bacteriostatic activity and blood and tissue concentration of the agent given as ELII were studied and compared with its intramuscular route of administration. The authors show it possible to employ scrotum ultrasound studies to evaluate the efficiency of treatment and estimate the scope of a surgical intervention. Based on the data of morphological study of postoperative specimens, the authors defined the time and worked out criteria for epididymectomy in tuberculous epididymitis.
