title: [Bacteriological analysis of the cervical canal in uterine cervix insufficiency].
abstract: A bacteriological analysis was made of pyogenic agents from the cervical canal of 260 pregnant women with cervical incompetency, in whom the cerclage of the cervix was performed. Pyogenic agents were found in 139 (53.5%) pregnancies. The most frequently isolated pathogenic agent was Enterococcus--in 19.2% of all pregnant women and in 36.0% in those with a pathologic swab. E. coli was isolated in 16.5% of all pregnant women and in 30.9% of those with the pathologic swab. A significantly higher number of pathologic swabs were found in women with colpitis and the cleanliness 3 degree of the vaginal discharge and without colpitis (6.4%). In pregnant women with a pathologic swab, in spite of the cervical cerclage, spontaneous abortions and premature deliveries were significantly more frequent (8.2% and 16.4% respectively) than in pregnant women with a sterile swab (1.8% and 6.1% respectively).
