Household epidemics of gonorrhoea are relatively rare in the United Kingdom. We report a cluster of cases of gonococcal infection in four children living in one household. The cases show the importance of full screening, including pharyngeal cultures, of all family members when paediatric gonorrhoea is diagnosed. Our cases also suggest that both boys and girls should be screened for gonorrhoea when gonococcal infection is found in an adult member of the household.
在英国，家庭性淋病流行相对罕见。我们报告了一户家庭中四名儿童感染淋球菌的聚集性病例。这些病例表明，诊断小儿淋病时，对所有家庭成员进行全面筛查（包括咽拭子培养）非常重要。我们的病例还表明，当家庭中的成年成员发现淋球菌感染时，男孩和女孩都应接受淋病筛查。
