Abstract
Unilateral conjunctivitis caused by penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae was diagnosed in a 21-year-old man. The conjunctivitis apparently resulted from autoinfection from the urethral discharge. The patient was satisfactorily treated with a single dose intramuscular of cefoxitin (2 g) and oral probenecid (1 g).Keywords
