| الوصف: | BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) 960 culture medium for the diagnosis of genital tuberculosis (GTB) in women presenting with infertility. METHODS: The premenstrual endometrial biopsy samples in 300 women presenting with primary and secondary infertility were subjected to AFB smear method, histopathological examination and culture on LJ and MGIT 960 media. Detection rates were compared for diagnostic modalities and their combinations. RESULTS: In total, 30 cases were positive for genital tuberculosis by either of the four tests employed. The detection rates for AFB smear, MGIT culture, LJ culture and HPE were 50, 46.7, 3.3 and 33.3%, respectively. A combination of smear examination for AFB, MGIT 960 culture and histopathological examination was able to detect all the positive cases. A combination of MGIT and LJ media provided no added advantage over MGIT alone since the only case where LJ culture was positive had been detected by positive MGIT culture. In as many as five positive cases (16.7%), only MGIT culture was positive. CONCLUSION: The addition of MGIT 960 culture medium to routine battery of investigations in infertility patients significantly improves the diagnosis. |
