Abstract:
A total of 8 patients have been treated in the recent 10 years in whom urogenital tuberculosis simulated the picture of bladder tumour. This occurred in 3% of overall patients with urogenital tuberculosis, i.e. primary diagnosis proved to be erroneous in such percentage of them. The course of the disease of 2 patients is reviewed in detail. In order to establish the differential diagnosis between the two diseases, the importance of bladder biopsy following polycystography is pointed out.
