The detection of herpes, chancroid, and syphilis in genital ulcers is done by PCR. This is not so for lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV). We report on the use of a PCR with digestion that differentiates the LGV biovar from the trachoma biovar. Our findings suggest that the clinical description of LGV in current textbooks is incomplete.
通过聚合酶链式反应(PCR)检测生殖器溃疡中的疱疹、软下疳和梅毒。而对于性病性淋巴肉芽肿(LGV)则并非如此。我们报告了一种经消化处理的PCR的使用情况,该方法可区分LGV生物变种和沙眼生物变种。我们的研究结果表明,当前教科书中对LGV的临床描述并不完整。
