Resumen:
The authors report six cases of acute urethritis and three cases of acute cenicitis caused in all instances by Neisseria menin-gitidis group B. The patients, five heterosexual men, one homosexual man, and three female prostitutes were seen at a venereal clinic in Mexico Gty. All of them were initially diagnosed as having gonorrhea. Treatment with procaine-penicillin G cured all cases, both clinically and bacteriologically. These experiences reinforce the need to distinguish N. meningitidis from N gonorrhoeae in the setting of sexually transmitted diseases. © 1991 American Sexually Transmitted Diseases Association.
