  • Title: Non-healing genital herpes mimicking donovanosis in an immunocompetent man.
    Author: Gupta V, Khute P, Patel A, Gupta S.
    Journal: Int J STD AIDS; 2016 Jan; 27(1):72-4. PubMed ID: 25614521.
    Abstract:
    Although atypical presentations of herpetic infection in immunocompetent individuals are common, they very rarely have the extensive, chronic and verrucous appearances seen in the immunocompromised host. We report a case of genital herpes manifesting as painless chronic non-healing genital ulcers with exuberant granulation tissue in an immunocompetent man. Owing to this morphology, the ulcers were initially mistaken for donovanosis. To the best of our knowledge, such a presentation of genital herpes in an immunocompetent individual has not been described previously.
