Lymphogranuloma venereum is a sexually transmitted
infection caused by serotypes L1-3 of Chlamydia
trachomatis and may present as hemorrhagic proctocolitis. The
diagnosis of an active infection is difficult to establish, as confirmatory
testing can be unreliable or unavailable. Imaging findings can be nonspecific
and mimic malignancy or other chronic infectious and inflammatory disorders. In
this report, we present a case of lymphogranuloma venereum proctocolitis and its
computed tomography features to highlight the relevant imaging findings and
importance of timely diagnosis.
The results of our study suggest that B-LAC is superior to B-LAA in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. Our results also suggest that B-LAA is not a suitable regimen in the treatment of H. pylori because of its substandard eradication rate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
