    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Microbiology

    Context:

    • Urinary tuberculosis (UTB) incidence has declined but remains a persistent clinical concern.
    • Decreased frequency complicates differential diagnosis of genitourinary conditions.

    Purpose:

    • To review the current understanding of urinary tuberculosis, including its diagnosis, treatment, and management.
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges posed by the constant annual number of UTB cases.

    Summary:

    • UTB lacks pathognomonic clinical signs, making laboratory identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in urine crucial for diagnosis.
    • Medical treatment typically involves a 3-month triple-drug regimen (rifampin, isoniazid, ethambutol) followed by a dual-drug regimen for 6-9 months.
    • Management strategies include medical therapy, destructive or conservative surgery, and endoscopic procedures for ureteral stenosis.

    Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of UTB diagnosis and treatment strategies.
    • Aids clinicians in managing UTB, particularly in differentiating it from other genitourinary diseases.
    • Contributes to the understanding of persistent UTB despite overall incidence reduction.
