This book is intended to educate the primary health care provider
about sexually transmitted and related diseases as they present in
homosexually active men. But why a book discussing sexually
transmitted diseases (STDs) in this population only? Surely STDs
are not limited to homosexual males. The relatively high rates of
incidence of many of these diseases among homosexually active men,
however, and the large number of associated diagnostic and
treatment problems have necessitated the collection into one volume
of the information that is par ticularly relevant to the primary
health care of this population. A book dealing with current trends
in the diagnosis and treatment of sexual diseases can, by nature of
the task, be neither encyclopedic nor all-encompassing. In this
volume, the choice of disease entities and the amount of material
included on each are based on consideration of the amount of
current information and the relative degree of uniqueness of a
given problem in homosexual men, rather than the absolute frequency
of the disease. There is, therefore, a considerable amount of
material on hepatitis B and gonococcal infections, reflecting the
recent explosion of research and clinical investigation in these
two areas. In contrast, little is said about nonspecific
urethritis, chancroid, and lymphogranuloma ve nereum. In the case
of nonspecific urethritis, although it is extremely common in
homosexual men, little progress has been made in diagnosis or
therapy."
