  • Title: [Urogenital tuberculosis in African (author's transl)].
    Author: Barnaud P, Courbil LJ.
    Journal: Med Trop (Mars); 1979; 39(2):173-77. PubMed ID: 573841.
    Abstract:
    A report of nine recent cases of urogenital tuberculosis in Africans with a review of literature. This possible but rare complication must be discovered, although it is a difficult process mainly in rural areas, since tuberculosis may bring about severe urogenital tract damage. Schistosomiasis and unspecific epidimymitis may hide it. Acido-alcoolo-resistant bacillus, detected in urin, must be cultivated on Loewenstein medium to remove contaminants and to confirm tuberculous pathogenesis.
