Clinical diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of 221 consecutive anorectal Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae sexually transmitted infections among men who have sex with men

Abstract: The prevalence of CT/NG anorectal infections described is high on symptomatic patients, and a significant level of abscess was reported. These results confirm the interest of the association of recommended antibiotics excluding quinolones. Prospective studies would be relevant on complicated forms of anorectal infections.

“…However, they mention that IRIS was low on the differential because the patient did not have AIDS or a CD4 count below 200 cells/mcL and because there was no evidence suggesting a pre-existing mpox infection that was being exacerbated by the ART initiation, so it could have been a completely new infection as well [ 29 ]. In contrast with our case, this patient did not develop chlamydia proctitis and did not have a clinically significant and confirmed infection of mpox that was later exacerbated, most likely by IRIS [ 30 , 31 ]. Interestingly, this patient had a nucleic acid amplification anal swab test positive for chlamydia and was treated with doxycycline; however, he never presented proctitis like in our case.…”

“…Что касается вопросов распространенности C. trachomatis, то в аналогичных зарубежных исследованиях она обнаруживается с частотой 3,6% (орофарингеальная форма) и 23% (ректальная форма), что также сопоставимо с нашими результатами. Кроме того, урогенитальные формы гонореи и ХИ у МСМ встречаются в несколько раз реже, и при обследовании пациентов только на наличие урогенитальных форм, было бы пропущено от 15 до 85% всех случаев ГИ и ХИ среди данной группы населения, что подчеркивает важность тестирования образцов биоматериала из экстрагени-тальных локусов [8,[10][11][12][13]. Однако обнаружение возбудителя в прямой кишке или в ротоглотке далеко не всегда сопровождается патологическими признаками и для окончательных выводов относительно клинического течения ректальной и орофарингеальной гонореи и ХИ у обследованных пациентов требуется продолжение работы.…”
