Serogroup specificity and antimicrobial susceptibilities of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated in Mexico City.

The serogroup pattern of 87 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was determined by monoclonal coagglutination and the in-vitro activity of seven antimicrobial agents against the same strains was tested by an agar dilution method. The frequency of resistance to spectinomycin, ampicillin, penicillin, erythromycin, chloramphenicol and tetracycline was 14.9%, 33.3%, 34.4%, 30%, 40.2% and 41.3%, respectively. All strains were susceptible to cefotaxime. Out of 87 strains tested, 29.8% produced beta-lactamases and 4.5% were chromosomally resistant to penicillin. In all instances resistance to a drug was associated with serogroup 1-B except for erythromycin. The results presented here correlate with observations made worldwide.

Urogenital infection due to meningococcus in men and women.

The authors report six cases of acute urethritis and three cases of acute cervicitis caused in all instances by Neisseria meningitidis group B. The patients, five heterosexual men, one homosexual man, and three female prostitutes were seen at a venereal clinic in Mexico City. All of them were initially diagnosed as having gonorrhea. Treatment with procaine-penicillin G cured all cases, both clinically and bacteriologically. These experiences reinforce the need to distinguish N. meningitidis from N. gonorrhoeae in the setting of sexually transmitted diseases.
