Highlights
The urogenital tuberculosis is characterized by a non-specific and highly misleading clinical symptomatology.
The clinical polymorphism of urogenital tuberculosis leads to a delayed diagnosis and severe complications.
The diagnosis is a mixture of clinical, biological, radiological and especially histological arguments.
The urogenital tuberculosis can mimic a renal or a bladder cancer requiring often a useless surgical treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
