Genitourinary Mpox: A case report & primer for urologists.

Since May 2022, there has been a worldwide outbreak of Mpox infection, a zoonotic viral disease caused by the monkeypox virus, outside of central and west Africa where it is endemic. In this report, we describe a case of a 23-year-old African American male patient with HIV infection and normal CD4 counts who presented with painful, evolving skin lesions at the base of his penis which were found to be a manifestation of Mpox. Early recognition of the symptomatology caused by Mpox is important for urologists as cases of this virus continue to rise in the United States.
