“…Trichomonas organisms are commonly observed in Pap tests, and their diagnostic morphologic characteristics are well known . In urine specimens from women, the presence of Trichomonas is often thought to represent vaginal contaminant and has been well documented . However, cytologic diagnosis of Trichomonas infection in men is not well described; only 2 case reports are described in the English literature…”

This study is the largest series of Trichomonas infection in men diagnosed by urine cytology in the literature. Most men had no prior diagnosis of trichomoniasis and received specific antibiotic therapy based on their urine cytology results. Urine cytology may represent the initial diagnostic test for Trichomonas in men, and accurate cytologic diagnosis may prevent undesired adverse outcomes for them and their partners.
