Prevalence of Urogenital Mycoplasmas Among Men with NGU in Upper Silesia, Poland. Preliminary Study.
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Microbiology - Year 2016, Vol 65, Issue 1
Abstract
The prevalence of urogenital mycoplasmas in men with NGU in Upper Silesia (Poland) was studied. Mycoplasmas were detected in 36.7% men ([i]Ureaplasma parvum[/i] and [i]Mycoplasma genitalium[/i] were found in 30% and 16.7% respectively). [i]Urealyticum urealyticum[/i] was not detected. We suggest the including [i]M. genitalium[/i] in the diagnostic scheme for [i]nongonococcal urethritis[/i] (NGU).
