title: [Staphylococci in children's pathology (author's transl)].
abstract: In this paper we report and make short comments on data concerning 237 strains of Staphylococci isolated from 8820 samples of various pathologic material we tested when normal working in the Laboratory of our pediatric Institute. We noticed that 34.1% of cases were St. epidermidis or St. saprophyticus and we think that the frequency of such a results is related to the special conditions of subjects, all children or newborn children, so that also so called saprophytic Staphylococci may have etiological meaning.
