Popis: In early secondary syphilis, predominant features of spirochetal infection may include hepatitis and glomerulonephritis. We report a 27-year-old woman with characteristic physical, laboratory, and microscopic findings of syphilitic hepatitis and glomerulonephritis; she responded to penicillin therapy and recovered completely. The importance of clinically and pathologically recognizing this treatable disease is emphasized.
