ABSTRACT
A study of direct genital swabs achieved in Abidjan, on 116 men and 131 women consulting for urogenital complaints, has revealed that the men show a prevalence of 28.4% Chlamydia trachomatis, and of 18.1% Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Concerning the women the prevalence of the same germs are 13.7% for Chlamydia trachomatis, and 4.6% for Neisseria gonorrhoeae. These results show the importance of Chlamydia trachomatis as a sexually transmitted disease in Abidjan (Côte-d'Ivoire). No differences were observed according to age in the two groups.
