PDF Nodular secondary syphilis
Nodular secondary syphilis is an uncommon variant of secondary syphilis, characterized by a diffuse nodular or papular clinical presentation. The majority of cases show a conspicuous absence of palmar and plantar lesions, which may lead to a reduced clinical suspicion of syphilis [2]. The nodular presentation always indicates granulomatous
Case Report: Nodular secondary syphilis in a woman
The presence of big nodules and plaques that are partly ulcerated is a rare manifestation of secondary syphilis. About 15 cases of secondary syphilis with big nodules and plaques resembling those of our patient's have been reported within the last 20 years (Table 1). These cases shared some similarities with our case presentation.

To the Editor: A 49-year-old male presented with a 4-week history of an asymptomatic eruption on the face, trunk, and extremities (Fig 1). He reported that the eruption began on his right arm and over the next several weeks spread to his face and back.

Papulonodular secondary syphilis: a rare clinic presentation confirmed
The most observed clinical presentation in secondary syphilis is the syphilitic roseola with rare cases described as the "papulo-nodular" form. 1 As in the case presented, nodular syphilis is characterized by multiple erythematous-violaceous plaques and nodules that may affect palms and soles, besides lesions in mucosae. Differential ...
Nodular secondary syphilis with granulomatous inflammation
Herein, we report a case of nodular secondary syphilis with sarcoid-like granulomas. A 27-year-old male, married for 12 years, presented with a diffuse, asymptomatic rash, low-grade fever, and malaise for 2 weeks, without any preceding genital or extragenital ulcer. The patient denied any history of extramarital sexual intercourse over the past ...

Supplementary concepts. Syphilis, secondary. We report the case of a 21-year-old woman with symmetrically distributed, ulcerated nodules and plaques on the face, neck and arms. Initial differential diagnoses included pyoderma or sarcoidosis based on the clinical presentation and histopathology with non-caseating granulomas. After inefficient t ….

Initial differential diagnoses included pyoderma or sarcoidosis based on the clinical presentation and histopathology with non-caseating granulomas.

Pulmonary Involvement in Secondary Syphilis
Learning points: The clinical and radiological presentation of pulmonary involvement in secondary syphilis is non-specific, described as solitary or multiple subpleural nodular opacities that are rarely infiltrating.We confirm here that for this localization, biopsy of these nodules is not necessary for diagnosis. Keywords: Syphilis; Treponema ...

A nodular-ulcerative form of secondary syphilis in AIDS
Lues maligna, or nodular-ulcerative syphilis, is a rare but severe manifestation of secondary syphilis first described by Bazin in 1859, with early systematic studies by Haslund and Neisser in the late 1800s ( 1, 2 ). The term "malignant" has been used to describe its grotesque clinical features ( 3 ). Lues maligna is characterized by ...

Nodular Syphilis Seen in an HIV-Positive Man: A Case Study
Nodular syphilis is a rare presentation of the secondary stage of syphilis, and contrary to the well-known maculopapular rash seen with syphilis infection, little is known about effective treatment of nodular manifestations of the disease. We present a case of a 54-year-old HIV-positive man with nodular secondary syphilis effectively treated ...
Nodular secondary syphilis in three HIV-positive patients: a case
Nodular secondary syphilis is an uncommon variant of secondary syphilis. We identified three cases of nodular secondary syphilis at our institution. The first patient presented with a diffuse nodular rash that included his scrotum and penis. The second patient had disseminated skin-colored nodules with serosanguinous crust on his face, trunk ...
Unusual late nodular presentation of secondary syphilis
A 20-year-old man presented with a five-week history of an eruption of papules and nodules disseminated over his body and face. We propose that this patient has a late form of secondary syphilis with a nodular, granulomatous inflammation in urgent need of treatment.

Cutaneous Secondary Syphilis Resembling Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer
The presentation of nodular syphilis has mimicked lymphoproliferative disorders, sarcoidosis, psoriasis, fungal infections, and other various dermatoses [5,6,11]. This case discussion aims to add non-melanoma skin cancer to the expanding differential and stresses clinical follow up to distinguish tertiary and secondary variants of syphilis.
Nodular secondary syphilis with associated granulomatous inflammation
Granulomatous inflammation in secondary syphilis is uncommon. A review of the literature reveals that the majority of prior reported cases of granulomatous secondary syphilis share similar characteristics to this case; namely, a papular or nodular clinical presentation, sparing of the palms and soles, and collections of epithelioid histiocytes ...

Secondary syphilis primarily presenting with multiple nodules on the
An extremely rare case of nodular secondary syphilis that primarily presented with multiple nodules on the scalp, resembling Rosai-Dorfman disease or cutaneous malignant metastasis is reported. Syphilis, a sexually transmitted disease caused by Treponema pallidum, manifests with a broad spectrum of clinical presentations that usually involves skin. Nodular secondary syphilis occurs rarely ...
