Abstract		We present a 33-year-old patient who developed high grade fever after returning from his 3-week journey in the south of Africa. He presented with 3 ulcers involving his left ankle and left-sided painful inguinal lymphadenopathy. Laboratory tests yielded low platelet count and mildly elevated liver aminotransferase levels. Ulcer smear and blood cultures grew no pathogenic bacteria or parasites.
Summary		V članku predstavljamo bolnika, ki je zbolel z visoko vročino po prihodu s 3-tedenskega potovanja po južni Afriki. V področju levega gležnja je imel 3 razjede, leve dimeljske bezgavke so bile povečane in boleče. V krvi je bila izražena zmerna trombopenija in blago povišanje vrednosti jetrnih transaminaz.
