Treponema pallidum , a spirochetal bacterium. This is a sexually transmitted disease that has three stages: Primary syphilis symptoms: painless lesions (chancre) at the site of infection (usually penis, vulva, or vagina). These sores heal in about a month or less. Secondary syphilis symptoms: rash (condyloma lata, lymphadenopathy), fever. Late syphilis: lesions on internal organs, expecially the brain and heart. There are sometimes false positive results on syphilis tests for HIV+. Warnings: CATIE lab tests for syphilis may not be accurate standard anti-syphilis therapy may not be effective chronic infection with T. pallidum

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Neurosyphilis occurs in 15 to 20% of all late or tertiary syphilis infections (about 10 to 20 years after the primary infection), and is a progressive, life-threatening complication. There are 4 different forms of neurosyphilis: asymptomatic , meningovascular, tabes dorsalis , and general paresis Asymptomatic neurosyphilis precedes symptomatic syphilis and is present in 15% of those with latent (hidden) syphilis. In this case, abnormalities may be present in the cerebrospinal fluid, but no symptoms are present. In meningovascular neurosyphilis, cranial nerve palsies and pupil abnormalities may be among a wide variety of symptoms. This may also cause damage to blood vessels resulting in stroke.

    Extractions: In early syphilis, dark field examination of exudate from lesions and direct florescent antibody tests on lesions or tissue are definitive. Non-specific serologic tests are useful for syphilis screening and for monitoring response to treatment. Specific serologic tests are used for establishing the diagnosis. They usually remain positive for life and therefore cannot be used to monitor response to treatment. CSF examination is necessary for diagnosis of neurosyphilis. In HIV-infected individuals, false-positive serological tests despite adequate therapy are possible due to polyclonal B-cell activation or auto-immune processes. Conversely, but extremely rarely, false-negative serological tests have been reported. Extraordinary means (such as direct examination of lesion material) may be necessary to establish the diagnosis in these unusual cases. Gordon et al. have concluded that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) PCR is not a sensitive test for neurosyphilis in HIV-infected patients. Despite clinical improvements reported in a trial of intravenous penicillin G, CSF VDRL levels measured by PCR remained high in all patients examined.
