Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Recently, a reduction in the susceptibility of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to newer fluoroquinolones including sparfloxacin in vitro has been recognized in Japan. The quinolone resistance mechanisms in gonococcal isolates from a patient with clinical failure of sparfloxacin treatment was investigated. GOAL: To report a man with gonococcal urethritis in whom clinical...
