Congenital syphilis remains a major public health problem worldwide, and its incidence is increasing in the United States. This review highlights the ongoing problem of this preventable infection, and discusses vertical transmission and clinical manifestations while providing a practical algorithm for the evaluation and management of infants born to ...

Abstract: Congenital syphilis is a rare and serious disease that, although preventable, continues to be a major healthcare problem. Its clinical spectrum ranges from an asymptomatic infection to fulminating sepsis or death. A diagnosis of congenital syphilis was made in an 8‐week‐old infant whose mother had adequate prenatal care.

Congenital syphilis offers many parallels with perinatal HIV infection. Both affect multiple organs including the central nervous system, may be asymptomatic for months to years, and pose diagnostic dilemmas, especially from a laboratory perspective. Syphilis is a co-infection in some cases of HIV.

Despite decades of experience with congenital syphilis, problems still arise in case definition, diagnostic evaluation, treatment, and follow-up. We reviewed all 50 cases of early congenital syphilis reported to the State of Texas in 1982. A large proportion of the infants were premature (39%), of low birth weight (38%), and symptomatic at birth (62%).

Case 1 A boy was delivered at 35 weeks' gestation by standard vaginal delivery. His mother was a 24-year-old gravida 4, para 1 woman. Purple erythematous macules and diffuse vesicular eruptions of various sizes were found extensively over the skin. The rapid plasma reagin (RPR) titer test of the newborn showed 1 : 16 positive and 1 : 32 weakly positive.

Three years before this writing, one of us (E. D. A. 1 ) in a preliminary report on this subject attempted to prove, by comparisons of weight, the value of early treatment in babies born of mothers believed to be syphilitic. Since the completion of that first report an additional number of patients have been treated and followed up for periods of from ...

Syphilis Complicating Pregnancy and Congenital Syphilis
New England Journal of Medicine(Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2024;390:242–253) Passage of the bacteria Treponema pallidum through the placenta is a known cause of congenital syphilis and continues to represent a global disease burden. Since 2001, rates of syphilis have increased in individuals of reproductive age and in infants, with rates reaching their highest in nearly ...

Syphilis is resurgent in many parts of the world. Even in those countries where rates have fallen focal outbreaks still occur. Congenital syphilis is an inevitable consequence of undetected and untreated syphilis in a pregnant woman. Universal screening in pregnancy, even if the positive yield from the test is low, remains the keystone to congenital ...
