Routine examinations performed in conjuntivitis exudates permit us to find the etiological agent of inclusion conjuntivitis, the "Chlamydozoon oculo-genitale". We have no notice, in the national medical literature, of any case of this particular conjuntivitis type. In order to cut down any possibility of transmission, we want to call the attention of all physicians and bacteriologists to be aware on the diagnosis, because this is a persons to person communicable disease.
