Nonsexual Acute Genital Ulcerations as a Rare Presentation of Disseminated Lyme Disease in a Pediatric Patient.

ABSTRACT

Nonsexual acute genital ulcerations (NAGUs), also known as Lipschütz ulcers, are vulvar ulcers occurring predominantly in adolescent females. Although the pathogenesis is unknown, NAGUs are commonly associated with systemic infections. Here, we present a female child with NAGU along with disseminated Lyme disease. We believe this is the first reported pediatric case of this phenomenon.
