  • Title: The role of mycoplasmas in sexually transmitted vaginitis.
    Author: Altomare GF, Polenghi MM, Pigatto PD, Bella G, Vivanti R, Italiano P.
    Journal: Boll Ist Sieroter Milan; 1984 Sep; 63(4):348-51. PubMed ID: 6518086.
    Abstract:
    Mycoplasmas were isolated from 325 female subjects who came to a gynaecological out-patient clinic for many different reasons. Micro-organisms can also be isolated in a high percentage from apparently healthy subjects. Our data indicate that mycoplasma can be either simple commensals in the uro-genital apparatus or saprophytes. In vulvo-vaginitis mycoplasma can cause a type of pathology which is always associated with the presence of other pathogens.
