Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) is an uncommon sexually transmitted disease caused by the L serovars of Chlamydiae trachomatis. Since 2003-2004, a continued outbreak of LGV proctitis (C. trachomatis serovar L2b) has been reported in North America and Europe, including France, among homosexual males, especially with HIV co-infection.
CASE REPORT: A 41-year-old man presented penile ulceration of three weeks' standing, associated with a large swollen granulomatous lesion and an inguinal lymph node but without proctitis. All lesions resolved after a three-week course of doxycycline 200mg daily. These lesions were related to a genital bubo due to LGV as confirmed by positive specific PCR for C. trachomatis (serovar L2) performed on the genital ulceration.
DISCUSSION: Clinical descriptions of male genital LGV are infrequent, even during the LGV proctitis epidemic seen in Western countries in recent years. A diagnosis of LGV must be considered in the presence of sexually transmitted genital lesions, even atypical, especially among HIV-infected patients.
