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 ...

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.

14 cases of tabes dorsalis, 4 cases of dementia paralytica, 3 cases of lues cerebri, and 1 case of syphilitic meningomyelitis are reported as observed over a 10-year period (1967-1976). Tabes has the peculiarity of revealing itself with pictures characterized by scarcity and mildness of objective neurological manifestations.

17 cases of recently diagnosed neurosyphilis are reviewed. The presenting features are diverse, and a clinical diagnosis may be difficult. Routine serological test are essential to confirm the clinical diagnosis.

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.

ABSTRACT:Lumbar puncture was performed in 18 patients with latent syphilis to rule out asymptomatic neurosyphilis. In seven patients the CSF findings were abnormal. The parameters used in CSF were cell count, total protein, immunoglobulins (IgC, IgA, IgM), IgG index, and serologic tests for syphilis (VDRL, Kolmer, RPCF and FTA‐ABS, including ...
