[Progress and perspectives in the study of non-clostridial anaerobic infection of female genitalia].

The authors show that strict non-spore-bearing anaerobic microbes are prevalent in the etiological pattern of pyoinflammatory diseases of the female genitals, present the basic pathogenetic features of the development and clinical signs of anaerobic infections. The present-day principles of diagnosis and treatment of these diseases are given. Prospects are shown for further studies of non-clostridial anaerobic infection in obstetric and gynecological care.
