[Chlamydia trachomatis cervicitis].
Cervicitis due to Chlamydia trachomatis is common in certain groups of women examined by the authors. It is clinically discrete, having no special characteristics and often not even showing clinical manifestations. However, it is the stage of infection of the genital apparatus which it is desirable to detect in order to prevent the serious tubal complications to which a too large number of young women is subject. Clinical medicine permits diagnosis and prescribes treatment for patients and, if possible, their partners. The principal difficulty is to know when to invoke them.
