Abstract

During the year 1985 we studied 1178 adult women, from the laboratory viewpoint, in order to define the. etiology of their vaginal discharge; in 25,3% we established the diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis (Gardnerella vaginalis associated vaginitis); in 13,9% we found candidiasis and in 2,9% trichomoniasis; the remaining 54,2% did not fit any of these categories; three patients revealed either Geotrichurn or Trichosporon the significance of which in the vagina is unknown and should be further studied.
