title: [Current views of bacterial infections caused by Chlamydia and Mycoplasma].
abstract: The current knowledge about the nature of pathogenic bacteria from the families Mycoplasmataceae (the genus Mycoplasma and the genus Ureaplasma) and Chlamydiaceae and their infectious activity requires that the previous view of the above microbes as accompaniments of the underlying disease shall be revised. No intrinsic clinical signs in infection, a propensity to the chronic pattern of the process, and an ambiguous immunological response of the human body require in each case scrupulous attention to both the diagnosis of and the therapy for mycoplasmosis and chlamydiosis. It is necessary to take into account the ability of atypical microorganisms to stimulate an allergic reaction in human beings during therapy in particular.
