Abstract:

The work shows us that the small Gram-negative bacilli frequently found in vaginal smears and capable of causing leucorrhea formerly considered non specific, are bacilli of the genre Hemophilus. They are glucidophilic and possess hemolytic properties more or less accentuated according to the medium of culture, which facilitates their diagnosis.
