Unusual skin ulceration in an HIV-positive patient who had Cutaneous Syphilis and neuroSyphilis.
The British journal of dermatology, 1997Co-Authors: S.c Tucker, V.m Yates, I.v. ThambarAbstract:We present a case of a patient coinfected with Syphilis and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who had unusual and severe Cutaneous ulceration. The profound immune defects associated with HIV may lead to an altered clinical presentation and a more aggressive course in patients infected with Treponema pallidum. Despite non-confirmatory histological findings, we feel our patient's Cutaneous ulcers probably represent superficial gummata, which have failed to resolve completely following currently accepted high-dose antiSyphilis chemotherapy.

late Cutaneous Syphilis
Cutis, 1997Co-Authors: R R Sule, S G Deshpande, N J Dharmadhikari, V R JoshiAbstract:Late Cutaneous Syphilis has become a rarity as a result of effective treatment of early and latent Syphilis with antibiotics. Superficial nodular lesions of late Cutaneous Syphilis should be differentiated from conditions including sarcoidosis, leprosy, lupus vulgaris, and granuloma annulare. We report the case of a 50-year-old woman with superficial nodular lesions of late Cutaneous Syphilis.

Late Cutaneous Syphilis and NeuroSyphilis
Dermatology (Basel Switzerland), 1996Co-Authors: C. Schoutens, V. Boute, D. Govaerts, G. De DobbeleerAbstract:We report two syphilitic cases of indeterminable duration. The dramatic Cutaneous lesions of the female patient, compatible with secondary-tertiary Syphilis associated with a positive VDRL reaction in CSF together with the criteria of neuroSyphilis in her male companion (despite normal TPHA and IgG indices), led us to treat both of them in an optimal way. The clinical and serological evolution was favourable.
