Abstract:
In the present study 143 males, aged 14-70 years and being treated for gonococcal urethritis, were examined for concomitant chlamydial infection. C. trachomatis was isolated from cell cultures of the excretion of 24 (16.8%) of these patients. Chlamydia-positive men were treated with oxytetracycline 250 mg 4 times daily for two weeks and following treatment all cultures for C. trachomatis were negative.
