[Combined clinical forms of pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis].
60 medical reports of patients with combination of pulmonary and urogenital organs tuberculosis were analyzed. Our study has shown that with heightening sickness rate of all forms of tuberculosis including pulmonary tuberculosis one can notice a slight rise of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. It can be explained first of all by difficulty in diagnosing extrapulmonary tuberculosis and absence of professional watchfulness to a possibility of combination of pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis. For example, in 45.3% of all cases with no positive effect of antibiotic therapy wasn't taken into account additional diagnostic methods for finding etiologic agent of the pathological process (Mantu test with 2 TU, Koh test with 50-100 TU, biological test, plan X-ray film of lungs, ultrasonic diagnostics of visceras, urine inoculation for MBT before treatment) and patients often were found with advanced tubercular process as in lungs so in urogenital organs.
