Gmelig Meijling KA, Boonk SE, Versteeg B, de Vries HJ and van Doorn R

Genital ulcers can be caused by many infections. This case report describes a patient with a persistent genital ulcer and lymphadenopathy. Although the patient had no other symptoms, and urine samples and rectal swabs were negative for Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), lymphograuloma venereum (LGV) was diagnosed as the cause of his genital ulcer. Not recognizing LGV infection as a cause of a genital ulcer can have severe consequences for both public health, by allowing further transmission of the infection, as for the affected individual by resulting in clinical complications.
