Abstract
Nicolas-Favre's disease, also called lymphogranuloma venereum, a venereally transmitted disease caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, is usually presenting as an inguinal lymphadenopathy or an anorectal syndrome. Cervical lymph node involvement is uncommon, and in a review of the literature the authors found about fifteen such cases. The mode of transmission frequently consists of oral sexual contact. In this report, the authors describe a case of simultaneous cervical and inguinal lymph node involvement. The inguinal localization secondarily appeared, and allowed to suspect diagnosis.
