The original Bethesda classification system for reporting cervical/vaginal cytologic diagnoses hasclaimed besides oncologic evaluation also a statement on the presence of infectious agents. Theirdiagnosis should be followed by appropriate treatment. Based upon the comparison of carefulbacterioscopic study in a series of 175 routine cervical smears with the results of microbiological,virological and mycological examinations the following pathogens might be-according to the aut-hors’ oppinion-diagnosed as highly possible and recommended for laboratory verification: cocci,Gardnerella vaginalis, Klebsiella, Acinetobacter, Morganella morgani, Candida, Trichomonas va-ginalis, Chlamydia trachomatis and human papilloma virus.
