Granuloma venereum

Granulomatous lesion of the genital organs, caused by a specific pathogen and manifested by ulcerative lesions of the skin and mucous membrane of the genital organs.

The causative agent of G. v. is a gram-negative bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis.

The disease belongs to venereal diseases.
G.v. It is usually transmitted through sexual contact, but can also be transmitted through contaminated objects.

Without treatment, complications are possible: arthritis, heart and vascular diseases, infertility, secondary sexual disorders in men and women.
There are several forms of the disease: acute, subacute and chronic donovanosis.



Granuloma venereosis is a serious sexually transmitted disease caused by the pathogen Treponema pallidum pallida. This bacterium is one of the causative agents of syphilis. The word "pallidum" comes from the Latin pallidus - "pale". For a long time it was believed that this disease was necessarily transmitted sexually, and only in the mid-50s it began to be associated with oral sex, as well as transmission of infection through blood. The disease is chronic and is manifested by the formation of neoplasms in many tissues, organs and systems of the body, including inflammation of the lymph nodes, joints or subcutaneous tissue. Venereal disease has common symptoms with other “similar” venereal diseases. The main symptom of the disease is the presence of swelling, prolapsed nodules and compactions, in place of which formations of various shapes and colors may appear. When granulomas occur, patients often complain of acute pain, which subsides after a short time. The patient begins to experience some discomfort, such as itching. In men, the fungus is localized in the scrotum or area of ​​the penis, sometimes spreading to the prostate gland; in women, the localization site is the labia minora, clitoris, vaginal opening, and lymph node. The main method of treatment is exposure to the pathogen with antibacterial drugs, although
