Granuloma Inguinale
Diagnosis of Granuloma Inguinale
Examination of fluid from the sore Granuloma inguinale is suspected in people who live in areas where the infection is more common and who have sores typical of the infection. To confirm the diagnosis of granuloma inguinale, doctors take a sample of fluid scraped from the sore and examine it under a microscope. If the diagnosis is unclear, doctors take a sample of tissue and examine it under a microscope (biopsy).
