Epidemiological, clinical and sexual behaviour characteristics of LGV cases are described. Seroadaptive behaviours as a transmission risk factor were assessed by a telephone questionnaire during 2012. Data were handled on a strictly confidential basis. LGV annual rate ratios in MSM were compared with cases from 2007. Differences were statistically analysed with a Poisson test. The incidence rate of LGV in MSM aged 15\u201369 years ranged from 32\u00b71\/10<jats:sup>5<\/jats:sup>MSM per year in 2007 to 182\u00b77\/10<jats:sup>5<\/jats:sup>MSM per year in 2012. In 2012, 31\/51 LGV cases (61%) answered the telephone questionnaire, of which 84% (26\/31) were HIV positive, 39% (12\/31) reported having sex according to their partners\u2019 serostatus and 7% (2\/31) used strategic positioning. The incidence of LGV has increased since 2007 and mainly affects HIV-positive MSM. It is probable that seroadaptation has facilitated LGV transmission.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0950268814000545","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,18]],"date-time":"2014-03-18T18:00:25Z","timestamp":1395165625000},"page":"184-188","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Lymphogranuloma venereum in Barcelona, 2007\u20132012: the role of seroadaptation in men who have sex with men"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"143","author":[{"given":"J.
