Reiter's syndrome and keratoderma blennorrhagica on glans penis--is this unusual?
Current teaching on Reiter's syndrome is that keratoderma blennorrhagica lesions appear characteristically on the soles of feet, although they can be seen on other parts of the body infrequently. We therefore thought that it would be interesting to report the case of keratoderma blennorrhagica lesions found on the glans penis of a circumcised patient with Reiter's syndrome.
