[Data on the epidemiology of venereal diseases in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region].
Data relating to the diffusion of venereal diseases in the Fiuli and Venezia-Giulia region over the period 1946-71 are presented. The picture is much the same as that observed elsewhere in Italy and in other European and non-European countries. This was more true of the provinces of Trieste and Gorizia than those of Udine and Pordenone. Cases of syphilis fell after the war to minimum figures in 1955-57, since when there has been a considerable increase. Blenorrhoea has followed a more fluctuating pattern, but is still an epidemiological factor of some importance, particularly in the province of Trieste. These various patterns in terms of the many factors that may be involved. The main clinical features of venereal diseases today are described. While less striking than in the past, they still result in serious and by no means negligible pictures.
