Overview
Clinically, the disease is commonly characterized as painless, progressive ulcerative lesions without regional lymphadenopathy.
Physical Examination
- In early stages donovanosis commonly presents as a nontender, progressive ulcerative lesions without regional lymphadenopathy.[1]
- Patients in late stages present with the following signs:[2]
- Scarring
- Elephantiasis-like swelling
- Stenosis of the urethra, vagina, or anus
Typical Lesion Characteristics
- Beefy red color
- Nontender
- Emit rank odor
- Elevated above skin
- Smooth, rolled edge
- Serpiginous outline[3]
Four variants can be further classified according to their clinical presentation:[1]
Type | Clinical Appearance |
---|---|
Ulcerogrnulomatous | beefy red, non-tender, bleeds easily |
Hypertrophic or Verrucous | irregular edge, dry |
Necrotic | foul smelling, deep, tissue destruction |
Sclerotic | dry, cicatricial, fibrous scar tissue |
Common Locations in Males
- Coronal sulcus
- Subpreputial region
- Anus
Common Locations in Females
Extragenital Lesion Locations
Extragenital lesions occur in 6% of patients, typically in the following locations:[3]

This 19 year old woman presented with an perianal granuloma inguinale lesion of about 8 months duration. From Public Health Image Library (PHIL). [5]
-
This patient presented with an ulcerated glans penis due to Donovanosis, or granuloma inguinale. From Public Health Image Library (PHIL). [5]

This image depicts the penis of a male with its foreskin retracted, revealing a suppurative lesion involving the glans and prepuce. From Public Health Image Library (PHIL). [5]
-
This image depicts the penis of a male patient who had presented with a lesion located on the lateral preputial skin just proximal to the corona of the glans. The lesion was characterized as a penile granulomata, due to a case of Donovanosis, or granuloma inguinale. From Public Health Image Library (PHIL). [5]
