| Core Tip |
We present a 53-year-old malnourished man with a two-month history of spreading ulcerative and necrotic cutaneous lesions with psychiatric symptoms. The patient was diagnosed with malignant syphilis accompanied by neurosyphilis based on the characteristic morphology, positive serological, cerebrospinal fluid tests and histopathology, with resolution of the lesions following penicillin therapy. We report the case to draw attention to the diagnosis of the disease, and its association not only with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), but also with other poor health conditions-specifically malnutrition. We suggest that neurosyphilis should be considered whenever people have psychiatric symptoms even in without cutaneous lesions or HIV. |
