Abstract
We performed anorectal testing in 18 cis-gender men who have sex with men with symptoms consistent with monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection. We found rectal MPXV DNA in 9/9 with and 7/9 without proctitis. Future study of anorectal testing is needed and may inform the diagnosis and pathogenesis of MPXV disease.
