[Triple bacterial infection of the cervix uteri in benign gonococcal sepsis]

Benign gonococcal sepsis or disseminated gonococcal infection is a well defined clinical entity. Although the coincidence of several sexually transmitted diseases in the same patient has recently gained interest no case has been reported so far in which benign gonococcal sepsis was combined with further bacterial infections of the genitals. Therefore the case of a 25-year-old woman is reported who suffered from cervicitis, arthritis, and dermatitis due to neisseria gonorrhoeae infection and also harboured chlamydia trachomatis and ureaplasma urealyticum in her cervix. Facing this coincidence certain therapeutical and epidemiological conclusions must be drawn.
