Fig 1. A case of nonspecific urethritis with
accompanying mild meatitis and mucoid urethral discharge.

Fig 2. Gram-stain of an acute case of gonococcal
urethritis demonstrating gram-negative intracellular
diplococci within leukocytes.

Fig 3. Microscopic saline preparation of vaginal
squamous epithelial cells with numerous attached bacteria
(Gardnerella vaginalis). Combined, these are identified as
“clue cells” and are key indicators of bacterial vaginosis.

Fig 4. Yellowish green frothy purulent discharge
emanating from the cervical os, demonstrative of
trichomonas vaginitis.

Fig 5. Phase contrast wet mount micrograph of a
vaginal discharge revealing the presence of Trichomonas
vaginalis protozoa surrounding a squamous epithelial cell.

Fig 6. Candidal cervicitis, caused by the fungus
Candida sp. The cervical discharge is white, thick, and
curd-like.

Fig 7. Vesicles of herpetic lesions on the penile
shaft due to herpes simplex virus 2.

Fig 8. Culture results of a genital specimen
inoculated into A549 cells. Cytopathic effects demonstrate
rounded, swollen, refractile cells. BAMC

Fig 9. Chancres on the penile shaft due to a
primary syphilitic infection caused by Treponema pallidum
bacteria. Painless lesions are indurated with raised edges.

Fig 10. Close-up view of keratotic lesions on the
palms of a patient’s hands due to a secondary syphilitic
infection. Each lesion is full of treponemes.

Fig 11. Chancroid lesion of the groin and penis
affecting the ipsilateral inguinal lymph nodes. Chancroid
lesions are painful and have ragged or uneven edges.

Fig 12. Progressively ulcerative, highly vascular
“beefy red” lesions caused by Klebsiella granulomatis
(donovanosis).

Fig 13. Genital warts on the labia.
