Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection was diagnosed by culture using a
selective medium (Thayer-Martin) in 140 (11,7%) of 1 200 pregnant
black women attending an antenatal clinic in 1981. The study
confirmed the need for specimens from three sites (endocervix,
urethra and rectum) -- endocervical cultures were positive in only
75,9% of infected women, in the remainder only the urethral and/or
rectal cultures were positive. Rectal cultures were positive in
41,6%. Cultures of throat swabs from 200 women were al negative
for N. gonorrhoeae .
