  • Title: Two unusual reports of urogenital tuberculosis: One 'putty' kidney and another in association with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
    Author: Mondal K, Mandal R.
    Journal: Indian J Tuberc; 2018 Oct; 65(4):356-359. PubMed ID: 30522625.
    Abstract:
    In India urogenital tuberculosis is the second commonest form of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. Kidney is the highest and prostate is the least affected urogenital organ. But the extreme stage of renal tuberculosis named as 'putty' kidney is a rare manifestation. In general most cases of urogenital tuberculosis are quasi-symptomatic, and therefore an uttermost apprehension is needed from physicians to intercept such cases at the earliest. In this presentation we describe a case of 'putty' kidney, and another incidental association of prostate tuberculosis with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
