[Evaluation of Vibrio cholerae isolation over 10 years in CHU Fann].
A retrospective study, concerning ten thousand five hundred and sixty five (10,565) stool samples examined from 1981 to 1990, was done at the Bacteriology Laboratory of Fann University Hospital, Dakar (Sénégal). One thousand and six hundred and eighty (1680) enteropathogen agents were detected (15.9%), five hundred ninety two (592) of which were vibrio cholerae. The quasi totality strains of the vibrio cholerae (99.8%) belonged to the Ogawa serotype; they were isolated mainly during the hot and raining season. Young male adults were the most infected. Most of the strains revealed sensitive to Sulfamids and Tetracycline.
