Abstract

Background: While the progressed phase of URINARy TUBERCULOSIS is a known entity and it has been characterized by the findings of intravenous pyelogram and sterile pyuria, but symptoms regarding to the earlier stage of disease have not been fully described. The clinical presentation, methods of diagnosis and outcome of 15 cases of isolated and early detected URINARy tract TUBERCULOSIS and a review of literature are presented here. Materials and methods: A Prospective and descriptive analysis of 89 cases with persistent URINARy tract symptoms that were referrals to clinics of nephrology and infectious diseases in Isfahan University of medical sciences revealed 15 cases of isolated URINARy tract TUBERCULOSIS. 3 morning urine were collected. Then all volume of urine centrifuged on 3000 g of 15 minutes. Several smears from sediments prepared and Ziehl Nelson staining were performed by standard techniques. Results: 15 specimens were positive for Mycobacterium TUBERCULOSIS and all the ceases were immune competent and seronegative for HIV and had no other evidence of disease elsewhere according to their vigorous work up. Those who had persistent URINARy symptoms in spite of antibiotic therapy and were smear or culture positive for Mycobacterium TUBERCULOSIS were known as TUBERCULOSIS. 2cases were only smear positive, 5 cases had positive smear and culture simultaneously and 7 cases only positive culture. Conclusion: We discuss isolated URINARy tract TUBERCULOSIS and symptoms related to early stage of disease that has not been discussed formerly. We concluded that anyone with prolonged URINARy symptoms and microscopic HAEMATURIA even with normal radiology deserves to be evaluated for TUBERCULOSIS.
