A typical case of<unk> ; absence of lactobacilli, presence of para basal epithelial cells, and pus cells. Gram-positive cocci and Gram-negative bacilli are also present. (Gram stain) The diagnosis is based on microscopic criteria. Ideally, phase-contrast microscopy is used with a magnification of 400x (high-power field) or by Gram stain. For scoring purposes, along with relative number of leucocytes, percentage of toxic leucocytes, background flora and proportion of epitheliocytes, lactobacillary grade must be evaluated: ;grade I :numerous pleiomorphic lactobacilli; no other bacteria ;grade IIa :mixed flora, but predominantly lactobacilli ;grade IIb :mixed flora, but proportion of lactobacilli severely decreased because of an increased number of other bacteria ;grade III :lactobacilli severely depressed or absent because of overgrowth of other bacteria AV score Lactobacillary grades Number of leukocytes Proportion of toxic leucocytes Background flora Proportion of parabasal epitheliocytes 0 I and IIa 10/hpf and; 10/epithelial cell >50% of leukocytes Cocci or chains >10% The "AV score" is calculated according to what is described in the table. * AV score <3: no signs of AV * AV score 3 or 4: light AV * AV score 5 or 6: moderate AV * AV score ≥7:severe AV. pH measurement alone is not enough for the diagnosis.
