    Abstract

    Nongonococcal urethritis(NGU) is one of the common sexually transmitted diseases. Chlamydia trachomatis is the commonest pathogen of NGU. Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma genitalium, Trichomonas vaginalis and other pathogens also account for some cases of NGU. With the development of molecular biology and immunology, more and more new techniques, such as PCR, LCR, etc., have been used in the researches on the laboratory diagnosis of NGU. It is necessary to establish and standardize some reliable rapid diagnostic tests for NGU. This paper reviews the progress in researches on the concept, etiology, clinical features, laboratory diagnosis and treatment of NGU.
