ABSTRACT
We report the case of a 18-year-old boy affected by keratoderma blenorrhagicum mimicking monkeypox infection. PCR test in urine and urethral swab positive for chlamydia trachomatis and a biopsy performed on a lesion of the palm of the hand led to the correct diagnosis. The current monkeypox outbreak is an evolving situation, thus a better understanding of morphological, clinical and temporal features could help in prompt diagnosis of this infection.
