Résumé
The frequency of lymphogranuloma venereum or invasive Chlamydia trachomatis infection with serovar L1, L2, or L3 is unknown in the United States. While no diagnostic test is commercially available, we used a laboratory-developed test and detected lymphogranuloma venereum-associated serovar L2 in 14% of 132 remnant C. trachomatis-positive rectal swabs.
