Abstract
Non-sexually acquired genital ulceration, also known as Lipschutz ulcer, is a rare condition that typically occurs in prepubertal and pubertal girls. It can be misdiagnosed as a sexually transmitted disease or even a sign of child abuse, causing great anxiety for patients and their families. It is often accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever, myalgia, or lymphadenopathy. Several viruses such as Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and mumps virus have been associated with this entity. Furthermore, Mycoplasma pneumonia has rarely been linked to such ulcers in the literature. We present a case of Lipschutz ulcer in a sexually inactive 11-year-old girl.
