Material & Methods. 327 UGTB patients: 195 were
observed in 1985-89 years (1 group) and 132 in 2001-
2007 years. (2 group).
Results. Current trends of UGTB have shown a
change of clinical features. In the 1st group
mycobacteriuria was found in 84.5%, in 2nd group -
has decreased up to 44.0%, mostly because of
widespread using of antibiotics. Comparison of

Conclusions. The main reason for late diagnosis of
UGTB - poor knowledge about this disease. The
clinical features of UGTB in 30 years have changed
significantly. 7 times less likely to be registered an
acute debut of UGTB, about 2 times more likely to
find flank pain and hematuria.
