Abstract

24 patients with acute epididymitis were examined and underwent urethral and urine cultures for Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Ureaplasma urealyticum, herpes-simplex virus, Chlamydia trachomatis, cytomegalovirus, and gram-negative aerobic bacteria. The results suggest that in young men the sexually transmitted organisms which cause urethritis (N. gonorrhoeae, C. trachomatis, and possibly U. urealyticum) may also lead to acute epididymitis, whereas in older men coliforms and Pseudomonas are the predominant causes of epididymitis.

摘要

对24例急性附睾炎患者进行了检查，并对其尿道和尿液进行培养，以检测淋病奈瑟菌、解脲脲原体、单纯疱疹病毒、沙眼衣原体、巨细胞病毒和革兰氏阴性需氧菌。结果表明，在年轻男性中，引起尿道炎的性传播病原体（淋病奈瑟菌、沙眼衣原体，可能还有解脲脲原体）也可能导致急性附睾炎，而在老年男性中，大肠埃希菌和铜绿假单胞菌是附睾炎的主要病因。
