Emedinews:Makesure:A 28–year–old male presented with increased frequency and occasional blood in urine. Urine examination shows sterile pyuria


Situation: A 28–year–old male presented with increased frequency and occasional blood in urine. Urine examination shows sterile pyuria.
Reaction: Oh my God! Why didn’t you check for TB?
Lesson: Make Sure to rule out TB in patients with frequency, dysuria, hematuria. A sterile pyuria is the first clue to diagnosis.
