    Abstract:
    Of 332 consecutive patients attending the female venereal disease clinic, Auckland Hospital, 74 patients had gonorrhoea confirmed by culture, but gram stained slides were positive in only 36 of these patients. Five other patients had positive gram stained smears but were culture negative. The study showed the value of gram stained smear in the rapid diagnosis of gonorrhoea in the female.
