| Popis: | Syphilis is a systemic infectious disease caused by Treponema pallidum, which can involve multiple or single organs. Syphilis can be divided into congenital and acquired syphilis. Congenital syphilis is transmitted through mother to child. Acquired syphilis is transmitted mainly through sexual pathways, blood transfusion and breastfeeding. Damaged skin and mucous membrane can also be infected by body fluids and saliva with pathogens. |
