Leptospirosis is a zoonosis of ubiquitous distribution, caused by infections with pathogenic leptospires. Their main reservoir are rodents. For transmission of infections to humans domestic animals ...are also very important.They only cause acute form of illness in humans. The spectrum of human diseases caused by leptospires is extremely wide. Meningitis is present at about 40% of cases of leptospirosis. The hepatitis of all stages, pneumonias, inflammations of kidneys with acute renal failure, myocarditis, bleedings in the numerous organs, changes in muscles and rash can be found in leptospirosis. The inflammation often involves multiple organs. The lethal outcomes are due to massive bleedings, myocarditis and multiple orgah failure.The diagnosis is confirmed with isolation of leptospires from hemoculture or with serological tests of leptospires agglutination. Penicilin is the antibiotic of choice. Essential in the prophylaxis of leptospirosis areactions against rodents, use of preventive clothes, gloves and boots, and active immunisation of animals and exposed people. About 90% of leptospiral patients in Slovenia during the last forty years were treated in General hospital Murska Sobota. This article presents our experience and studies aboutleptospiral patients.
