Abstract

Microbiological examination and potential pathogens of vaginal samples are substantially different in the prepubertal, reproductive, lactation, and menopausal periods. Because vaginal samples are mostly from women during the reproductive age and frequently examined as though all patients are in the same age group, improper evaluations and consequent false reports or misdiagnoses mightoccur. To draw attention to such a mistake in the evaluation of vaginal samples, here we describe a 5-year-old patient with Group A Streptococcal vaginitis.

Özet

Vajinal örneklerin mikrobiyolojik incelenme yöntemle- ri ve hastalık etkeni patojenler, puberte öncesi, doğurganlık, laktasyon ve menopoz dönemlerinde farklılık gösterir. Mikrobiyoloji laboratuvarına gelen vajinal örnekler, genellikle doğurganlık çağındaki kadınlara ait olduğundan, tüm örneklerin bu yaş gurubuna aitmiş gibi düşünülerek incelemeye alınması hatalı sonuçlara neden olmaktadır. Bu raporda A grubu Streptokok Vajiniti tanısı konulan 5 yaşında bir olgu sunumu üzerinden, mikrobiyoloji laboratuvarında yapılabilecek hatalar gözden geçirilmiştir.
