Anorectal Testing for Mpox Virus Infection in Men Who Have Sex With Men With and Without Proctitis
Clinical Infectious Diseases(2022)
Abstract
We performed anorectal testing in 18 cis-gender men who have sex with men with symptoms consistent with mpox 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.
