In bilateral renal tuberculosis the treatment should be the hygienic treatment, plus the specific treatment with tuberculin, until at least the value of this method has been proven or disproven ; and in some cases, where especially indicated, such palliative surgical measures as nephrotomy and drainage may be of service.

The subject is usually discussed in a short paragraph in the general chapter on tuberculosis, and is not mentioned at all in the sections on diseases of the kidney. This fact may in part explain the lack of information of the general practitioner on this subject. He has not had it properly presented to him. This fault should be corrected. Means must be found to instruct the family physicians that tuberculosis of the kidney is a common disease, that by proper methods the diagnosis...
