Abstract
(1) The affection of bone and joint in tuberculosis gives no serious influence on the menarche, menstrual circle, menstruated period and menostasis.
The small amount in menorrhoea, however, are elicited in 44 cases (24%) out of 239 cases on questionair.
This may be induced by the chronic consumption caused by the tuberculosis of bone and joint.
(2) If the orthopedic treatment is still insufficient, with the manifestation of cyst like decalcification, atrophy around the residual bone debris, and clean-cut sequestrum on Xray findings, even the artificial delivery, though aiming the less consumption, causes the aggravation or relapsy of the tuberculosis.
(3) Provided the focus is in sound stillness, artificial or even natural delivery gives no influence on the tuberculosis regardless the involevement, extent of focus and vertebral deformity.
(4) The combination of the narrow pelvis is observed in high frequency in the female patient with the spondylitis tbc.
24% out of total cases with the normal developement of foetus, is to be on Cesarean Section on her delivery.
