Non-Group a beta-hemolytic streptococci among cases of pharyngotonsillitis

ABSTRACT

Two hundred patients with pharyngotonsilitis 5-20 years of age were studied during the period from October 1992 to July 1993 together with 200 carefully matched control subjects. The main objective was to evaporate the role of non-group A Beta-hemolytic streptococol in sporadic pharyagitis. Group G and C seemed to be important causes of acute pharyagitis, depending on their behavior rates being significantly higher among patients than among controls and on the demonstration of immune response in patients sera. Variation is the distribution of group A and non-group A B-hamolytics streptococcal isolation from patients according to age, gender and season where need. Correlation between three culture results and certain clinical manifestation was although observed. In addition resistant strain of different B-hamolytic streptococcal groups to the commonly used ant microbial during for the treatment of account pharyngilis were present
