title: [Sulfametrol-trimethoprim in the treatment of chronic urinary tract infections].
abstract: Thirtyeight patients with a chronic urinary infection (definitions see methods) were treated for 3 months with Trimethoprim-Sulfametrol. During therapy in 19 (70%) out of 27 patients without obstruction in the urinary tract infection could be eliminated. In 3 (27%) out of 11 patients with obstruction in the urinary tract infection was also eliminated. In 2 (18%) of these 11 patients the causative organisms changed to resistant strains. In 2 patients (10%) resp. in one patient without obstruction and one with obstruction in the urinary tract the infection recurred within the follow up of 3 months.
