Neuroradiology, 2021 Neurosyphilis can mimic different diseases, not only in its clinical presentation but also on imaging. Treponema pallidum is also known as the "great imitator." Having an ultimate diagnosis of neurosyphilis is quite critical as this can affect management drastically. Herein, we discuss the case of a 69-year-old female who was treated for neurosyphilis,

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1994
Central nervous system invasion by Treponema pallidum, the causative agent of syphilis, occurs in many, if not most, patients with syphilis. Laboratory findings from untreated asymptomatic syphilis patients with abnormalities of cerebrospinal fluid are termed asymptomatic neurosyphilis and represent a group that has an increased risk for developing ...

We describe the case of a young woman with a rapid deterioration in her cognitive status and physical functioning. An extensive laboratory and radiologic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of neurosyphilis. Despite the reemergence of syphilis with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic, neurosyphilis is often neglected in the ...

Abstract The incidence of syphilis has increased world-wide over the last ∼25 years, and this increase has been accompanied by a resurgence of neurosyphilis. This review sets the stage for understanding neurosyphilis by briefly summarizing the clinical and laboratory findings in uncomplicated syphilis.

No portion of the central nervous system is immune to the ravages of syphilis. Infection by Treponema pallidum can affect the meninges, brain, brainstem, spinal cord, nerve roots, and cerebral and spinal blood vessels. As a consequence, the disease may present in diverse and, at times, diagnostically challenging fashions.

In the future it seems probable that cases of neurosyphilis will be seen sporadically by physicians and neurologists. As a result of the almost universal ingestion of antibiotics for trivial conditions, many cases of syphilis will be modified or arrested and some patients will be cured of the disease without ever knowing that they have acquired it.
