Abstract

Spolno prenosive bolesti uzrokovane su brojnim mikroorganizmima, a među najčešćim uzročnicima su Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Treponema pallidum, Mycoplasma genitalium, Humani papilomavirus, Herpes simplex tip 1 i 2 i Trichomonas vaginalis. Većina infekcija su asimptomatske, ali kada simptomi postoje, najčešće se prezentiraju kao vaginalni iscjedak, lezije na koži ili bol u abdomenu u žena. One mogu imati teške posljedice, kao što su prijenos infekcije na dijete tijekom trudnoće ili porođaja, infertilitet u žena i muškaraca i razvoj malignih novotvorina te je stoga bitna dobra dijagnostika i adekvatno liječenje oba partnera na temelju dijagnostičkog nalaza. Prevencija se temelji na edukaciji mladih već prije ulaska u spolne odnose i na početku njihova spolnog života, na detekciji zaraženih i asimptomatskih osoba, adekvatnoj dijagnostici i liječenju zaraženih simptomatskih pacijenata, pronalasku i liječenju svih spolnih partnera inficirane osobe te u novije vrijeme prevencija se provodi i cijepljenjem. Liječenje se provodi različitim antibioticima kao što su tetraciklini, makrolidi, kinoloni i azitromicin, koji ima posebno
značenje među antibioticima, te antiviroticima, kao što su aciklovir, famciklovir i valaciklovir, za liječenje Herpes simplex virusa.

Abstract (english)

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are caused by numerous microorganisms and some of the pathogenes with the highest incidence are Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Treponema pallidum, Mycoplasma genitalium, Human papillomavirus, Herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 and Trichomonas vaginalis. Most of these infections occur without symptoms but if the symptoms do exist, they are most commonly presented as vaginal discharge, skin lesions and abdominal pain in women. Such infections can have severe consequences, such as transmission from mother to child during pregnancy and childbirth, male and female infertility and growth of malignant neoplasm. Because of this, good diagnostics is needed in order to properly diagnose and to correctly medicate both partners. Prevention and control of sexually transmitted infections are based on education of the young before entering sexual intercourse and at the beginning of their sexual life, on detection of infected asymptomatic persons, proper diagnostics and therapy of infected symptomatic patients, identifying and treatment of all sexual partners of infected patients and also on vaccination. Various antibiotics are used for the treatment of STIs, such as tetracyclines, macrolides, quinolones and azithromycin, which has an important place among antimicrobials and, also, some antiviral drugs are used, such as acyclovir, famciclovir and valacyclovir, for treatment of Herpes simplex virus.
