Abstract

An experience of this kind was made by Ryabtseva and Poller, who applied for therapeutic purposes the introduction of a tampon soaked in an emulsion of pure lactic acid culture into the vagina for 8-10 hours daily. The vagina was prewashed with 1% lactic acid solution. In 16 cases of gonorrhea in girls, the authors saw favorable results, manifested clinically by the cessation of separation, disappearance of inflammatory phenomena and bacteriologically by the disappearance of gonococci in smears and negative results of repeated cultures in all cases. The duration of treatment did not exceed 40 days.
