| Description | Objective: To provide basic clinical, laboratory, and micro¬biological characteristics of adult patients with campylobac-tenosis admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases University Hospital Brno (UHB), in 2011-2013. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis of clinical and laboratory parameters of 160 patients hospitalized with Campylobacteriosis at the Department of Infectious Diseases, UHB from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2013.
