Abstract

Federico Feltes, Lara Vallés, Inmaculada Alcaraz, Heinz Kutzner and Luis Requena

We report two cases of lymphogranuloma venereum that manifested initially with an inflammatory nodule in the foreskin, a rare lesion known as “bubonulus”. Both patients where men who have sex with men, HIV positive, in good immunologic condition, and lacked any other factor that could possibly explain the development of this form of presentation. Immunohistochemically, Chlamydia particles were found in lesional skin.
