[Genital tuberculosis in African female patients (author's transl)]. 1979

P Barnaud, and L J Courbil, and A Carayon

Genital tuberculosis in 76 Senegalese women and 82 Nigerian women, have been compiled from statistical tables covering a period of 10 years. The authors present the features of genital tuberculosis in african females. In most cases, diagnosis is made through peroperative findings or anatomo-pathological control of exeresis specimens; still, biopsy of endometrium, systematically performed on each patient consulting for sterility, gave opportunity to detect an important number of cases of genital tuberculosis in Nigeria. The frequency of this disease is low among other unspecific genital infections. Its medical treatment is effective on tuberculous infection but not on sterility which is an unavoidable sequella.
