Donovanosis (Granuloma inguinale) is an infectious disease, the effects of which are usually confined to the genital region. Various extragenital manifestations of the disease have been described. This report describes a case where the condition represented in the oral cavity some time after the apparently successful treatment of the genital lesion. Members of both the medical and dental profession serving the northern parts of Australia and adjacent tropical regions should be aware of the possibility of encountering this disease. Delay in its diagnosis may result in extensive tissue destruction and a potentially fatal outcome. Intensive antibiotic therapy followed by long-term follow-up is usually curative.
腹股沟肉芽肿是一种传染病，其影响通常局限于生殖器区域。该疾病的各种生殖器外表现已被描述。本报告描述了一例在生殖器病变明显成功治疗一段时间后口腔出现该病症的病例。服务于澳大利亚北部及邻近热带地区的医学和牙科专业人员应意识到可能会遇到这种疾病。诊断延迟可能导致广泛的组织破坏和潜在的致命后果。强化抗生素治疗后长期随访通常可治愈。
