Popis: | There are increasing reports of unusual clinical features and atypical courses of syphilis in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Recently, we had the opportunity to study an HIV-positive female patient with strong manifestations of secondary syphilis. The case is discussed together with the implications of secondary syphilis in her concomitant ocular affliction. Moreover, we comment on the clinico-therapeutic controversies brought about by the association of infection with Treponema pallidum and HIV. |
