We reviewed the notes of men who have sex with men (MSM) presenting to our clinic with a positive pharyngeal NAAT for gonorrhoea between January and December 2019. There were 383 cases of NAAT-positive pharyngeal gonorrhoea, and 28 (7%, 95% CI = 5.11\u201310.36) reported sore throat at presentation. Pharyngeal cultures were taken from 270\/383 (70%), and 73\/270 (27%) were culture positive with available antimicrobial sensitivities. Overall, the presence of pharyngeal symptoms was not associated with pharyngeal chlamydia (OR = 1.6, CI = 0.19\u201313.32, p = 0.7), HIV status (OR = 1.1, CI = 0.47\u20132.57, p = 0.8), positive cultures (OR = 1.9, CI = 0.78\u20134.62, p = 0.2) or age ( p = 0.3). Routine screening of MSM for pharyngeal gonorrhoea is important to maintain surveillance and measures need to be taken to improve pharyngeal culture sampling from MSM.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0956462420975627","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,5]],"date-time":"2021-02-05T13:59:19Z","timestamp":1612533559000},"page":"449-452","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Pharyngeal\n                    <i>gonorrhoea<\/i>\n                    in men who have sex with men"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0955-6307","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"Richardson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"},{"name":"Brighton and Sussex Medical School, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alice","family":"Pickering","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6287-8682","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel","family":"Trotman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kayleigh","family":"Nichols","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zoe","family":"Buss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John","family":"Devlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fionnuala","family":"Finnerty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, Brighton, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0956462420975627","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/sextrans-2014-051731"},{"key":"bibr2-0956462420975627","unstructured":"CDC.
