- Abstract
A genital ulcer can be associated with sexually transmitted infections, such as syphilis and herpes, and sexually transmitted organisms, such as Chlamydia trachomatis. We report a case of scrotal ulcer caused by Staphylococcus aureus clone USA300 in a 56-year-old man living with human immunodeficiency virus in Osaka, Japan. It is important to enhance the awareness and surveillance regarding the potential of spread of this organism in the community of men who have sex with men in this district.
