    Journal: Ter Arkh; 1987; 59(12):6-9. PubMed ID: 3128884.
    Abstract:
    Altogether 124 patients with tuberculosis of the kidney and post-tuberculous changes of the urinary tracts were investigated. Changes in microflora of the urine, feces, blood, fauces, vagina, and resected tissues in the course of antituberculous therapy were studied. Frequent disorders in ecological equilibrium of autoflora of the macro-organism were shown to develop in the first 2-4 months of antituberculous therapy, mainly in patients with an active tuberculous process and a complicated course (urinary stasis, chronic renal insufficiency). Intestinal dysbacteriosis was diagnosed in 32.1% of the patients, nonspecific microflora in the urine--in 32.9-42.4%. Early detection and correction of dysbacteriosis was an indispensable condition for effective treatment of tuberculosis of the urinary system.
