Lymphogranuloma Venereum in a Public Health Service Hospital in Southern Spain: A Clinical and Epidemiologic Study.
CONCLUSIONS: When symptomatic proctitis is found in MSM who engage in high-risk sex, the LGV exudate should be sampled and the C trachomatis serovar identified. Genital ulcers or inguinal buboes are also highly suggestive of LGV. Clinical suspicion and early treatment are the keys to preventing complications and disease transmission.
