Abstract

Granuloma inguinale is a chronic granulomatous infection resulting from invasion by a pleomorphic coccobacihus, Donovania granulomatis. It chiefly involves skin and subcutaneous tissues but also may spread via the blood stream, resulting in osteomyelitic findings roentgenographically; such a case and its treatment is recorded in this paper, including a review of the literature pertaining to this entity.
