Abstrakt

Mycoplasma hominis is a common inhabitant of the vagina of healthy women. It has been linked to pelvic inflammatory diseases such as tubo-ovarian abcess and salpingitis. Mycoplasma hominis is also associated with bacterial vaginosis but it is still unclear whether the organism really contributes to a pathological process in which so many different bacteria are involved. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of Mycoplasma hominis in the genital tract of women with different clinical symptoms. A total of 3 5 1 cervical swabs were investigated. Mycoplasma hominis was isolated in 83 cases (23.6 %). The positive samples were compared with regard to genital symptoms and age of the women. Mycoplasma hominis was isolated in 33.3 % from pregnant women and 27.5 % from group of 31-40 years old women. Susceptibility of clinical isolates of Mycoplasma hominis was studied to doxycycline, ciprofloxacin and erythromycin.
