The case histories of 299 patients examined at the Urogenital Department, Novosibirsk Research Institute of Tuberculosis, were analyzed to define the etiology of urogenital diseases. The diagnosis of urogenital tuberculosis was established in 112 (37.4%) patients; that of chronic nonspecific pyclonephritis was in 90 (30.1%) patients; chronic nonspecific prostatitis was detected in 49 (16.4%) males; urolithiasis was found in 20 (6.7%) patients. Twelve (4%) and 60 (20.1%) patients were diagnosed as having urinary system cancer and hematuria, respectively. Hematuria most frequently (75%) was indicative of the presence of a tumor. However, in renal tuberculosis, this sign was also revealed in 24.1% of the patients. It should be noted that there is a recent tendency for an increase in the incidence of diseases concurrent with hematuria: the kidney has been found to be concomitantly afflicted with tuberculosis and cancer in 2 patients; tuberculosis is concurrent with nephrolithiasis in 2 other patients.
