Role Of Laparoscopy In Diagnosis Of Genital TB In Infertile Females In The Era Of Molecular Tests

ConclusionPCR as a stand-alone diagnostic test for endometrial tuberculosis is not justified to confirm diagnosis and initiate ATT. Addition of laparo-hysteroscopy improves diagnostic yield for genital tuberculosis. Referring patients with a suspicion of FGTB to tertiary care for one time laparoscopy is better than initiating ATT based only on PCR results.
