Observations of Trichomonas vaginalis infections at the University Teaching Hospital in Calabar, Nigeria.
The pattern of Trichomonas vaginalis infections at the Outpatient Clinic of the University Teaching Hospital in Calabar, Nigeria was determined for the two-year period (January 1981 - December 1982). Of the 5520 patients examined in 1981, T. vaginalis was found in 10 males (0.11%) and 57 females (1.03%). Of the 2511 patients examined in 1982, the parasite was found in 27 males (1.07%) and 31 females (1.20%). A few prepubertal cases were observed. The increasing significance of T. vaginalis as a public health problem in this area is discussed.
