Abstract
UGTB is a multivariant disease, and standard unified approach to it is impossible. Join term “UGTB” has insufficient information in order to estimate therapy, surgery and prognosis – as well as to evaluate the epidemiology. Uniform approach to the therapy and management of UGTB independently of clinical forms leads to poorer results, then individual one. Using clinical classification will improve the efficiency of the therapy of UGTB.
Diagnosis “UGTB” as whole has a little information, it is insufficiently both for estimation of epidemiology and choosing of approach of the therapy. The clinical classification is simple and clear, it is enough for estimation of the form and stage of disease and for definition of correct optimal treatment.
