Aim. To analyze the prevalence of nonspecific UTI in patients with tuberculosis and to evaluate the efficiency of therapy and prevention measures.
Material and methods. A total of 936 patients with tuberculosis of various localizations aged from 18 to 96 years were examined. There were 447 men (47.8%) and 489 women (52.2%). A diagnosis of nonspecific UTI was done using following criteria: the presence of characteristic symptoms, leukocyturia and bacteriuria detected by microscopic examination of the urine sediment, positive urine culture for nonspecific species, negative urine tests for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Results. The prevalence of nonspecific UTI among 936 patients with tuberculosis was 18.6% (n=174). Non-specific species were determined in all forms of tuberculosis, but most often in urogenital tuberculosis (74.1%). Proposed therapeutic and prophylactic tactics included antibacterial therapy, herbal drug Kanefron N and sanitary measures. The efficiency of treatment was 94.6%. It should be noted that patients received anti-tuberculosis therapy, and there were no adverse reactions associated with a combination of drugs.
Conclusion. When choosing treatment tactics, it is necessary to take into account the presence of structural and functional changes in the urinary tract, which reduce treatment efficiency.
