[Clinical etiological findings in chlamydial urethritis in men].
120 patients with abacterial urethritis were studied for chlamydia. Clinical, cytological, serologic and electronenmicroscopic tests were performed. 66.60% of the tested persons were seropositive for C. trachomatis, 32.50% of all patients and 48.80% of the seropositive patients showed positive cytological tests. Direct electron microscopy of biopsy material of the urethra of 30 patients revealed chlamydial bodies in high concentrations. The incubation period was about 1-2 weeks. Oxytetracycline was used for 8 days, but had to be one- to four times repeated in resistent cases.
