Over the last few years an increase of tuberculosis in the urogenital forms has also been noted. The authors decided to investigate whether the clinical features of the disease have changed in time. Data taken from literature were compared with the case histories of the San Luigi Hospital from the last 5 years. At onset, symptoms have remained practically the same. Some data emerged, however, which have given food for thought: diagnosis was made on average 6–8 months after the first symptoms appeared and the lesions were often found in the advanced stage, thus requiring a greater number of radical and reconstructive operations.
