    Abstract:
    The incidence of Campylobacter jejuni in patients with acute diarrhoea was studied in Honolulu, Hawaii. C. jejuni was recovered from 8.7% of diarrhoeal stools, compared to isolation rates of 4.2% for Salmonella and 3.8% for Shigella. C. jejuni occurred mainly in the summer and autumn, and in all age and racial groups. There was a significantly higher incidence of abdominal pain, fever history, bloody stools and faecal leucocytes in patients with Campylobacter enteritis.
