La spirochétose est une maladie infectieuse causée par l'un des spirochètes pathogènes (bactéries hélicoïdales pouvant aussi prendre d'autres formes, kystiques lorsqu'elles sont en situation de stress[1],[2],[3],[4],[5],[6],[7],[8],[9],[10],[11]).
Exemples
Les spirochétoses les plus connues sont la leptospirose, les borrélioses (maladie de Lyme notamment), le pian et la syphilis sont des spirochétoses.
