Article Synopsis
- LGV (lymphogranuloma venereum) has been found prevalent among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Moscow for the first time, with a significant percentage (68.8%) of those with rectal chlamydia (CT) also testing positive for LGV.
- Factors such as older age and group-sex practices were linked to a higher incidence of LGV, including a strong correlation with HIV-positive status among those infected.
- Diagnosis of LGV can be complicated due to similar symptoms with inflammatory bowel disease, highlighting the necessity for targeted laboratory testing for LGV in MSM, which is currently insufficient in Russia.
