[Relevant problems of persistent bacterial infections].
The persistance of human bacterial infections is influenced by different factors and varies in duration. Besides genetical defects of the immune system the persistance of bacteria may also be enfavored by underlying diseases also. Regarding the duration of the persistance the long or even life long lasting infections are of special clinical, epidemiological and public health interest. The topic deals with present problems only, the tuberculosis is excluded and discussed in another presentation.
