Popis: Pedal Monkeypox is a disease which can mimic many other pedal conditions. It should always be considered in differential diagnosis. A young male HIV patient who presented with a tender foot lesion and diagnosed with pedal Monkeypox as a result of performed tests is discussed hereby in the case report. We expect that this case report adds to the existing literature on this subject.
