Conclusions: the gonorrhea process is played out in the epithelium and connective tissue of the genitourinary tract and has an exudative-proliferative character. The inflammatory infiltrate consists of lymphoid cells, plasma cells, leukocytes, and eosinophils. The squamous epithelium is not an obstacle to the penetration of infection this is clearly seen when studying the process in the paraurethral passages. The penetrated deep into the gonococcus are phagocytosed by lecocytes in the surface layers of the submucosa. Metaplasia of columnar epithelium in squamous and transitional, can be in any part of the genitourinary tract and can be detected before the onset of gonorrhea. Litreitis is not necessary for gonorrhea. Prostatitis can be without vesiculitis.</p>Kazan Medical archiveКазанский медицинский архив
