Key Words Treponema pallidum; Alimentary tract hemorrhage; Small intestinal ulcer; Gastrointestinal syphilis; Infectious diseases; Case report
Core Tip Syphilis is considered a sexually transmitted disease, which can affect all systems of the body and cause multiple clinical signs and symptoms. We report a rare case of gastrointestinal hemorrhage caused by treponema pallidum. The case occurred in an adult male patient. The patient has not only suffered from atrial fibrillation, heart valvular disease, chronic pancreatitis, etc. but also undergone heart valve replacement surgery for more than ten years. In recent years, the patient even experienced recurrent unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding. Finally, based on careful analysis, syphilis was identified as the cause of intestinal ulcers that eventually led to gastrointestinal bleeding. This case shows that syphilis is a systemic disease and it is important to treat syphilis as a couple.
