[Management of sexually-transmitted diseases diagnosed in women in tropical Africa].
Taking into account their own experience and very numerous recent publications, the authors proposed an easy protocol towards diagnosed S.T.D., in African woman. Diseases are classified according to symptomatology: clear infection in case of cervico-vaginitis, ulcerations (painful or not), tumural formations, and also during salpingitis or infertility. They particularly emphasize cervico-vaginitis manifestations which represent one visit out of three in Gynecology Departments. For each infection, they recall its symptomatology, diagnosis and efficient treatment. They strongly recommend to keep in mind, in Africa, multi-microbial associations.
