[A Buschke and Lowenstein tumor in a female patient].

Although it presents clinically as a malignant formation, the Buschke-Lowenstein tumour is known to be a histologically benign tumour caused by a papillomavirus infection from an condyloma acuminatum. The Buschke-Lowenstein tumour is generally observed in male subjects, usually on the penis, and rarely occurs in women. A female case is reported. In the literature, human papillomavirus 6 is the most common type although types 11, 16 and 18 are also reported. Surgery is the only treatment for this tumour which recurs readily.

[Comparative study of ofloxacin+amoxicillin-clavulanic acid versus doxycycline+amoxicillin-clavulanic acid combination in the treatment of pelvic Chlamydia trachomatis infections].

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ofloxacin+coamoxiclav versus doxycycline-coamoxiclav in the treatment of chlamydial pelvic infections. DESIGN: An open, comparative, randomised, monocentric study. SUBJECTS: A hundred and eighteen patients (85 endometritis and 33 salpingitis) were included. Clinical, laparoscopic and bacteriological assessments were performed before treatment. 30.4% of salpingitis were considered as severe (COGIT score > 6). 25.4% of acute pelvic infections were only caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. TREATMENT: A hundred and eighteen patients were treated orally with 3 week combination ofloxacin (200 mg b.i.d.) + coamoxiclav (1 g b.i.d.) (n = 60) or with a 6 week coamoxiclav (1 g b.i.d.) + doxycycline (100 mg b.i.d.) (n = 58). RESULTS: Oral combination ofloxacin-coamoxiclav is as effective as oral combination doxycycline+coamoxyclav with respectively 96.7% versus 96.6% and 100% versus 98.4% satisfactory clinical et bacteriological results.

[Acute salpingitis: current antibiotic protocols].

Nowadays, most patients with uncomplicated acute salpingitis undergo ambulatory treatment. The choice of medications must take features of PID into account: they are mult-microbial infections and a prolonged follow-up is necessary in order to decrease the risk of sequellae. To fulfil these goals, combination of antibiotics are prescribed that are active against C. trachomatis, enterobacteria and anaerobes.
