[Bacteriological cultures by laparoscopy in salpingitis (author's transl)].
Out of a series of 50 salpingitis, we have made bacteriological swabs of tubes and peritoneum in 37 cases (25 cases by laparoscopy and 2 cases by laparotomy). 27 women had received no antibiotic treatment before swabbing: bacteriological culture was positive in 14 cases and gram Stain positive in 15 cases: thus we had either a complete study, either a "good idea" of pathological flora in 20 cases out of 27. 10 women received some antibiotic treatment before swabbing: bacteriological culture was positive in 2 cases, gram stain positive in 3 cases. We had idea of pathological flora in 4 cases out of 10. Tubal cultures show either a one-agent infection (gonococcus, E. Coli or anaerobic agent) either a various aero-anaerobic flora. In 18 cases we could compare abdominal flora and low genital tract flora: results were identical in half of cases only (7 cases on 18). Gonococcus was cultured either in women with P.I.D. either in their partner's genital tract, in 11 cases on 37. Both cultures and gram stain were negatives in 13 cases: in these cases, we could perhaps incriminate either a supplement requiring bacterie, either other micro-organisms (chlamydia trachomatis or Mycoplasma) which will be studied in a further series (to be published).
