Description
Summary:The venereal diseases are 'infectious' diseases, whose causal agent it is important to detect at the time of clinical diagnosis and whose disappearance after treatment should be verified. When the diagnosis is or appears obvious (acute gonococcia or syphilitic chancre), it is not justified to prescribe a treatment before having the laboratory's confirmation. After treatment, the laboratory contributes indispensable elements to diagnosis of cure. Trans. of Clinique (France) v59 p629-638 1964.
