Cytological studies of secretions in female gonorrhea

Abstract

More and more often they come to the belief that the reaction of the organism to an infectious agent is strictly specific and that each pyogenic microbe causes certain cellular elements of the tissue to fight the infection, so often the cell composition of the exudate, i.e. the predominance of certain cell forms in it, can be typical for this or that cause of inflammation. Based on this, cytological examination of the exudate may be valuable and important from a diagnostic point of view. Such specific cytological patterns could be of particular importance in relation to gonorrhea, especially female gonorrhea: it is known how unreliable the bacterioscopic examination of whites for gonococci is sometimes, the disappearance of which from the vaginal secretion often does not yet prove the actual recovery of the patient.
