    What is lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV)?

    Lymphogranuloma venereum, also known in french as Nicolas-Favre disease, is a sexually transmitted infection (STI). The pathogen or bacteria responsible for this infection is chlamydia trachomatis.

The more virulent types L1-L3 can provoke a generalized infection and associated genital ulcerations.
