Abstract
Urethral, rectal and pharyngeal material from 150 men who had had exclusively homosexual contact and who consecutively attended a sexually transmitted diseases clinic was cultured for C. trachomatis. The organism was isolated from at least 1 site in 15 (10%) patients. The isolation rates from the urethra, rectum and pharynx were 6.7%, 4% and 1.3%, respectively.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
