[Significance of ultrasonic examination in the diagnosis of genital tuberculosis in women].

Ultrasonic examination was applied to 149 female patients with active genital tuberculosis, late aftereffects of clinically cured tuberculosis and different nonspecific diseases of the internal genitalia. In all the three groups the ultrasonic examination revealed fibromyomas, adenomyosis, hypoplasia of the womb body, tubo-ovarian inflammations, cysts and cystic degeneration of the ovary. The examination made it possible to detect small fibromyomas, small ovary cysts and hydrosalpinx in the three groups. This extended the diagnostic possibilities.
