Verification of identification of infectious agents by culture in routine gynecologic cytological screening
1999
: The original Bethesda classification system for reporting cervical/vaginal cytologic diagnoses has claimed besides oncologic evaluation also a statement on the presence of infectious agents. Their diagnosis should be followed by appropriate treatment. Based upon the comparison of careful bacterioscopic study in a series of 175 routine cervical smears with the results of microbiological, virological and mycological examinations the following pathogens might be-according to the authors' opinion-diagnosed as highly possible and recommended for laboratory verification: cocci, Gardnerella vaginalis, Klebsiella, Acinetobacter, Morganella Morgani, Candida, Trichomonas vaginalis, Chlamydia trachomatis and human papilloma virus.
