Mycoplasmemia in adult male patients
M. S. Simberkoff and B. Toharsky
Mycoplasma hominis mycoplasmemia was associated with obstruction,
manipulation, or surgery of the genitourinary tract in five adult men. A
four-fold increase in specific antibody titer against M hominis was
demonstrated in serial convalescent serum obtained from one patient. Two
patients became afebrile after treatment with tetracycline; a third
recovered without therapy for a Mycoplasm infection. The two remaining
patients died of thier underlying diseases.
