[Gonococcal diseases today--a review of the diagnostic and therapeutic development of the past years].
The diagnosis of gonococci in vitro is reliable and simple nowadays. Investigations are still based on direct microscopic control and on culturing. With the help of coagglutination by monoclonal antibodies and enzymatically controlled color reactions, we are able to take Neisseria gonorrhoeae apart from other gram-negative and oxidase-positive diplococci. In the therapy of common gonorrhea, we now use antibiotics more recently developed than penicillin. The complicated extragenital and disseminated forms of the disease require special modes of treatment usually provided in hospital.
