Excerpt
Lymphogranuloma venereum, a widespread, communicable disease usually acquired venereally, was first reported in the literature in 1833, by Wallace.l12 For almost a century little more was learned about the disease except that the theory of its climatic origin, which had given rise to its identification as climatic or tropical bubo, was discarded when Rost 99 concluded that the disease was not of climatic but rather of venereal origin. It has been described under a host of names in addition to tropical or climatic bubo, e.g., lymphogranuloma inguinale, poradenitis nostras, chronic elephantiasis with vulvar ulceration, lymphopathia venereum, Frei's disease, Nicolas-Favre disease, fourth venereal disease, and fifth venereal disease, to mention a few.
