[Intravesical distension in the corrugated tuberculotic bladder].

The treatment problem of urinary tract post-tuberculous changes is not completely solved. Current methods do not always give good results and are accompanied by some complications. The authors describe their own modified method of hydrostatic intravesical distension of the tuberculotic-cirrhotic bladder, using epidural anesthesia, and worked out indications for it. The results show an increase in the bladder volume from 100-120 to 250-300 ml with a decreased urination frequency in 8 patients. The method occurred to be very convenient-to-use due to the absence of any complications.
