AbstractNine hundred thirty four samples of urethral secretion proceeding from male subjects without previous treatment were analyzed with Gram stain. These subjects consulted in Santiago Western area, and belong to medium and low socioeconomical status. In 82.5% of samples, intracellular gram-negative diplococci were found, that made the presumptive diagnosis of gonococcal urethritis. The importance of direct examination of urethral secretion for the diagnosis and immediate treatment of gonococcal urethritis is emphasized.
