Atypical reiter's syndrome

ABSTRACT

Genital ulceration is a rare manifestation of Reiter's syndrome [RS]. We report a case of a young Asian male with atypical Reiter's syndrome who presented with painful and malodorous perianal and genital ulcerations, low back pain, and psoriasiform skin lesions. A review of the literature revealed only 4 reported cases of Reiter's syndrome and genital ulceration, all in females. To our knowledge perianal and genital ulceration in a male patient with RS has not been described before
