Haemophilus ducreyi causing chronic skin ulceration in children visiting Samoa.

James E Ussher1, Elizabeth Wilson, Silvana Campanella, Susan L Taylor, Sally A Roberts.   

Abstract

Chancroid is a sexually transmitted infection associated with genital ulceration and lymphadenopathy caused by Haemophilus ducreyi. Localized skin infections, in the absence of genital lesions, have not been previously reported. We report 3 cases of lower limb ulceration in children caused by H. ducreyi and postulate that H. ducreyi may be a previously unrecognized cause of chronic skin ulceration.
