Intestinal spirochaetosis. Light and electron microscopic study.
24 cases of colon spirochaetosis have been studied by light and electron microscopy. This condition, although rarely diagnosed because of the absence of special clinical symptoms, seems to be a rather frequent histologic finding with marked variation in its geographical incidence. In our material the incidence of spirochaetosis was 16.5%, almost double than in Great Britain.
