Abstract:Giriş: Trichomoniosis, seksüel yolla bulaşan hastalıkların en yaygın olanlarından birisidir. İzmir de Trichomonas vaginalis insidansını belirlemek için vaginal akıntısı olan kadınların vagen arka torniksinden vaginal akıntı alındı. Materyal ve metod: 1613 kadının vagen arka forniksinden alınan vaginal örnekler direkt olarak, Giemsa yöntemiyle boyayarak ve CPLM bcsiyerinc ekim yapılarak incelendi. Bulgular: 1613 vaginal örneğin 248 (%15.37)'sindc T.vaginalis saptandı. Her üç yöntemle 212 hastada parazit bulunurken, 36 hastada sadece CPLM kültür yöntemi ile saptanmıştır. Tartışma: Bu çalışmada, trichomoniosis insidansı Türkiye'de daha önce yapılmış olan çalışmaların sonuçları ile karşılaştırıldı. Çalışmamızda elde edilen prevalansın diğer bazı ülkelerde yapılmış olan çalışmalarda elde edilenlerden daha yüksek olması, hastaların düşük sosyoekonomik ve kültürel düzeyine bağlanmıştır.
Abstract:Trichomoniosis is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases. In order to determine the incidence of Trichomonas vaginalis infection in Izmir, Turkey, vaginal smears were obtained from posterior fornix of the vagen of women who had vaginal discharges. Materials and Methods: Vagina] specimens were obtained from the posterior fornix of the vagina of 1613 women. The smears were examined by Wetmount and Giemsa stained preparations and CPLM cultivation methods. Results: T. vaginalis was present in 248 of 1613 smears (15.37%). We detected the parasite in 212 patients by three methods. We could detect the parasite in 36 patients by only CPLM medium cultivation method. Conclusion: In this study, we compared our results with the results of previous studies in Turkey. The higher frequency than some studies from the other countries was attributed to the low socio-economic and cultural levels of these patients.
