Causes
Chancroid is a bacterial infection caused by the fastidious Gram-negative streptobacillus Haemophilus ducreyi. It is a disease found
primarily in developing countries, associated with commercial sex workers and their clientele.
Infection levels are low in the western world, typically around one case per two million of the population (Canada, France, UK and
USA). Most individuals diagnosed with chancroid have visited countries or areas where the disease is known to occur frequently,
although outbreaks have been observed in association with crack cocaine use and prostitution.
Uncircumcised men are at three times greater risk than circumcised men for contracting chancroid from an infected partner. Chancroid
is a risk factor for contracting HIV, due to their ecological association or shared risk of exposure, and biologically facilitated
transmission of one infection by the other.
After an incubation period of one day to two weeks, chancroid begins with a small bump that becomes an ulcer within a day of its
appearance. The ulcer characteristically:
More specifically, the CDC's standard clinical definition for a probable case of chancroid includes all of the following:
• Patient has one or more painful genital ulcers. The combination of a painful ulcer with tender adenopathy is suggestive of
chancroid; the presence of suppurative adenopathy is almost pathognomonic.
• No evidence of Treponema pallidum is indicated by dark-field examination of ulcer or by a serologic test for Syphilis
performed at least 7 days after the onset of ulcer.
• The clinical presentation is not typical of disease caused by human herpesvirus 2 (Herpes Simplex Virus), or result of
culture for HSV is negative.
About half of infected men have only a single ulcer. Women frequently have four or more ulcers, with fewer symptoms. The ulcers
appear in specific locations, such as the coronal sulcus of the uncircumcised glans penis in men, or the fourchette and labia minora in
women.
In women the most common location for ulcers is the labia majora. "Kissing ulcers" may develop. These are ulcers that occur on
opposing surfaces of the labia. Other areas such as the labia minora, perineal area, and inner thighs may also be involved. The most
common symptoms in women are pain with urination and pain with intercourse.
The initial ulcer may be mistaken as a "hard" chancre, the typical sore of primary syphilis, as opposed to the "soft chancre" of
chancroid.
Approximately one third of the infected individuals will develop enlargements of the inguinal lymph nodes, the nodes located in the
fold between the leg and the lower abdomen.
Half of those who develop swelling of the inguinal lymph nodes will progress to a point where the nodes rupture through the skin
producing draining abscesses. The swollen lymph nodes and abscesses are often referred to as buboes.
Treatment
The CDC recommendation for chancroid is a single oral dose of Azythromicin or a single IM dose of Ceftriaxone or oral
Erythromycin for seven days.
Background: Granuloma inguinale (GI) is primarily a sexually transmitted disease in which characteristic intracellular inclusions
called Donovan bodies may be seen. It usually manifests as genital lesions, which are indolent, progressive, ulcerative, and
granulomatous.
Frequency:
• In the US: Fewer than 100 cases are reported annually, many of which are thought to be due to foreign travel.
• Internationally: GI is endemic in Western New Guinea, the Caribbean, Southern India, South Africa, Southeast Asia,
Australia, and Brazil.
Mortality/Morbidity: Untreated, the disease will most likely not remit, and the lesions may continue to expand for years (see
Complications).
Race: The racial predilection is most likely due to socioeconomic status and living conditions rather than a racial susceptibility.
Lymphogranuloma venereum
What is lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV)?
LGV is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) or infection involving the lymph glands in the genital area. It is caused by a specific
strain of Chlamydia.
The incidence is highest among sexually active people living in tropical or subtropical climates. It has also occurred in some areas of
the southern United States.
The first symptom may be a small, painless pimple or lesion occurring on the penis or vagina. It is often unnoticed. The infection then
spreads to the lymph nodes in the groin area and from there to the surrounding tissue. Complications may include inflamed and
swollen lymph glands which may drain and bleed.
The onset of symptoms varies widely. The initial lesion may appear from three to 30 days after exposure.
amoeba is a single-celled microscopic organism that has no solid body structure. Numerous species of amoebae can live as
parasites inside the human intestines, but only one is known to cause disease - Entamoeba histolytica (E. histolytica), and the
disease it causes is known as amebiasis.
