摘要

本病例报告的重点是一名没有性活动史的 14 岁女孩因生殖器溃疡而感染爱泼斯坦-巴氏病毒的罕见病例。尽管最初被误诊，且阿昔洛韦治疗失败，但调查排除了性传播的原因，但发现爱泼斯坦-巴氏病毒抗体升高。随后，她接受了为期 14 天的强的松治疗，病情明显好转。本病例强调了考虑生殖器溃疡非性病因的重要性，以防止延误或不当治疗，并突出了就此类非典型表现开展更广泛教育的必要性。

Nonsexual Genital Ulcers Secondary to Epstein-Barr Virus in a Pediatric Patient

This case report focuses on a rare presentation of Epstein-Barr virus as genital ulcers in a 14-year-old girl with no sexual activity history. Despite initial misdiagnosis and failed acyclovir treatment, investigations ruled out sexually transmitted causes but revealed elevated Epstein-Barr virus antibodies. Subsequent treatment with a 14-day prednisone course led to significant improvement. This case emphasizes the importance of considering nonsexual etiologies for genital ulcers to prevent delayed or inappropriate treatment and highlights the need for broader education on such atypical presentations.
