N2 - A case of cholera imported to Denmark from the Pacific is presented. The patient was successfully treated with rehydration and antibiotics. A survey of the ongoing seventh pandemic of cholera is given and the possible emergence of a new eighth pandemic is discussed. Guidelines for prophylactic and therapeutic measures are discussed. Although V. cholerae colonies can be recognized on routine cultivation media, low numbers require selective media, and this is not included in routine investigations of stools for pathogens.
