[Etiologic structure of bacterial dysentery in the USSR in 1983-1985].
The etiological structure of dysentery in the USSR in 1983-1985 is characterized. Sonne dysentery was found to prevail in the territories with adequate water supply, while dysentery caused by Shigella flexneri prevailed at the territories with unsatisfactory water supply. S. dysenteriae and S. boydii were found to play a limited role in the etiology of dysentery. In the presence of global pandemic, an increase in the isolation rate of S. dysenteriae I in the USSR is observed. The data on the biochemical structure of S. sonnei are presented.
