The occurence of Neisseria meningitidis in the urogenital tract is a rarity but nevertheless this may lead to a false diagnosis of gonorrhea, even when the Thayer-Martin-selective-medium is used and oxidase-reaction is performed. This is demonstrated in our case. A complete diagnosis, including sugar-fermentation, is necessary, when gram-negative diplococci are isolated from urogenital swabs. In the case Neisseria meningitidis is isolated, it is not required by law to report it to the public health authorities.
脑膜炎奈瑟菌在泌尿生殖道出现的情况较为罕见,但即便使用了瑟-马二氏选择培养基并进行了氧化酶反应,这仍可能导致淋病的误诊。我们的病例就证明了这一点。当从泌尿生殖道拭子中分离出革兰氏阴性双球菌时,进行包括糖发酵在内的全面诊断是必要的。如果分离出脑膜炎奈瑟菌,法律并不要求向公共卫生当局报告。
