Identificación de Bacterias Patógenas causantes de Infecciones de Vías Seminales en Hombres de 20 a 40 Años de edad que acuden al Laboratorio Central Puyo

Abstract

The seminal tract infections occur in men between 20 and 40 years of age and the inconvenience that cause are a group of conditions that have in common the presence of significant numbers of bacteria in semen. Acute infections of the seminal tract can be subdivided into two main anatomical categories: infection of the upper tract (prostatitis and urethritis) and lower tract infection. In most cases, the growth of a number of colonies/ml, can be clinically important, especially in young adults and specimens obtained by seminal culture, any growth is considered clinically important. The seminal tract infection may be recurrent, relapses can be recovery or re infections. Relapse refers to the reactivation of the infection with the same bacteria that was present before treatment, i.e. due to the persistence of the bacteria developing seminal. The re infection it causes a different from the original micro-organism, although it can sometimes be the same organism presented resistance to the antibiotic. It is important and necessary to know the etiology, sensitivity and antimicrobial resistance in adult patients with seminal tract infection. To avoid that the patient present long-term sterility.
