ABSTRACT
Trichomoniasis occurs also in childhood in the period of hormonal inactivity, though its rate is not so high as in women of childbearing age and full sexual activity. In our series of children in the period of sexual inactivity, established by functional cytology, trichomoniasis was diagnosed in 3.8% of the total number of 1,562 children. Preparations of imidazol proved to be fully effective in the treatment of trichomoniasis in girls. In diagnosis the semisolid Szenes's culture medium in Valent's modification was used to advantage. Its standard use provides a basic precondition for good recovery of the protozoon. Trichomoniasis as such does not present so serious a problem as do the consequences of the unrecognized and untreated disease when the proliferated secondary flora potentiates the severity of the infection. This condition may lead to salpingitis and peritonitis causing sterility, and it may also spread into the uropoietic system.
