Sexually transmitted diseases in women with urethral syndrome
1988
Abstract Frequency of micturition and dysuria were prominent symptoms in 135 (57%) of 237 women with urethral syndrome. Urea-plasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis and Chlamydia trachomatis were the principal organisms associated with the urethral syndrome (38.41%, 28.14% and 11.11%, respectively). Escherichia coli was cultured from four patients and Herepes genitalis and Neisseria gonorrhoea were isolated from five patients. Infections with more than one organism were frequent. Thirty-one of 135 patients were infected by two organisms, 27 by three and 4 patients by four microorganisms. Vaginitis due to Garnerella vaginalis, Candida spp. and Trichomonas vaginalis was discovered in 52 (39%) of 135 patients.
