[Urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis infections].
Urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis infections are the most common sexually transmitted diseases which have shown a significant increase in the last few years. This organism presents a major health problem in many countries. It is recognized as the cause of both complicated and uncomplicated infections in men, women and infants passing through an infected birth canal. Tissue culture is accepted as the gold standard in the diagnosis of chlamydial infections. But, since this technique is expensive and cumbersome, antigen detection tests such as DFA and EIA are more widely used. Tetracyclines and erythromycins are the first-choice antimicrobials in the treatment of chlamydial infections.
