A Case of Lympho-Granuloma Inguinale producing Rectal Stricture

E.M.S. Kent and Sussex Hospital

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

A case of rectal stricture of recent onset occurring in a middle-aged woman. Other symptoms include marked loss in weight, pyrexia and, at one time, symptoms suggesting an acute abdominal condition. Clinical and X-ray findings revealed a stricture of the rectum. The association of enlarged lymph nodes, peri-anal suppuration and a strongly positive Frei test leads one to a diagnosis of lymphogranuloma inguinale.
