[Early clinical and laboratory diagnosis of pseudotuberculosis].
As shown by the examination of 188 patients with suspected pseudotuberculosis, the latter produces a greater total of clinical manifestations than any other nosological entities differentiated from it. Conventional (retrospective) techniques of laboratory diagnosis (bacteriological ones, indirect hemagglutination) confirmed the diagnosis in 76.1% of the cases against 93.1% under new rapid techniques of seroindication (enzyme immunoassay and antibody neutralization). Moreover, the diagnosis with new techniques can be managed earlier. The overall assessment of clinical symptoms and techniques of seroindication allow early administration of valid treatment thus avoiding recurrences and complications of pseudotuberculosis.
