591 The Prevalence and Clinical Significance of the Isolation of Ureaplasma Urealyticum in Midtrimester Amniocentesis

Developing of chronic salpingoophoritis, non-specific bacterial vaginitis and specific candidamytotic vaginitis ought to be associated with complicated obstetric anamnesis and presence of biovar Parvo ureaplasmas predominantly found in womens genital tracts. The correlation may be seen between identifying biovar Parvo ureaplasmas in men and arising of torpid and chronic infectious urethritis, that may testify to its more intensive pathogenic effect comparing with biovar T- 9GO. Detection of biovar T-960 in urogenital system in men and women doesnt exclude the possibility of inflammation, that implies adequate complex therapy identical to that in case of biovar Parvo.

The clinical significance of Ureaplasmas in urogenital pathology is reviewed. Ureaplasmas belong to the class Mollicutes. Asymptomatic carriage of these bacteria is common, and most individuals do not develop disease. Ureaplasma urealyticum and Ureaplasma parvum are sexually transmitted bacteria among humans implicated in a variety of disease states including but not limited to: nongonococcal urethritis, adverse pregnancy outcomes, chorioamnionitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia in neonates. U. urealyticum has been associated with urethritis in men and is revealed in a high concentration that confirms its etiological role in the disease. Men with a high U. urealyticum load are considered for treatment, however, the data on the therapy efficiency have been insufficient so far. In symptomatic women, bacterial vaginosis should always be tested for, and the corresponding therapy should be prescribed in case of positive results.
