Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) is a primarily cutaneous, and sometimes systemic, sexually transmitted disease (STD), which primarily affects lymphatic tissue of the groin. LGV is caused by unique serotypes L1, L2, and L3 of Chlamydia trachomatis.
This type of fungus most often reaches the internal organs to cause systemic mycoses. Among the systemic mycoses, systemic mycoses are distinguished primary and opportunistic systemic mycoses: Primary systemic mycoses : some types of fungi can cause infections in healthy subjects. The spores are everywhere and are inhaled into the lungs and then reach the body.
Larvae from W. vigil and W. opaca cause furuncular myiasis in cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, mink, foxes, and humans. In nearly all hosts, infestations mostly occur in the very young, because the larvae are unable to penetrate adult skin.
