| description |
Gastric syphilis is an uncommon extracutaneous manifestation of syphilis,
occurring in less than 1% of patients, presenting nonspecific clinical
manifestations. In general, it occurs on secondary stage. The critical point is
the recognition of the syphilitic gastric involvement, without which there may
be incorrect diagnosis of malignancy of the digestive tract. In this report, a
case of secondary syphilis with gastric involvement that had complete remission
with benzathine penicillin will be described. |
