Reducing suspicion of sexual abuse in paediatric chlamydial conjunctivitis using ompA genotyping.

BMJ case reports - 29 Mar 2021

Mitchell Alexander, Patel Mitul, Manning Chloe, Abbott Joseph

Abstract excerpt

Chlamydia trachomatis is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes urogenital tract infections, and ocular infections including trachoma, neonatal conjunctivitis and adult chlamydial inclusion conjunctivitis. A positive C. trachomatis diagnosis in children often raises suspicions of sexual abuse. While outer membrane protein A (ompA) genotypes A-C are non-invasive and are associated with trachoma; ompA genotypes D-K...
