Syphilis rates are increasing around the globe and symptomatic or visual lesion diagnostic approaches may be missing some cases presenting as an atypical lesion. Molecular diagnostics are recommended for management of genital lesions to improve diagnostic accuracy and subsequent patient management.

  • Ulcerations or lesions in the ano-genital and oral regions can be caused by a variety of bacterial and viral infectious agents.
  • Syphilis lesions can present atypically, be painful, and appear indistinguishable from herpes.
  • Up to 3% of genital lesions may be atypical zoster (VZV) presentations.
