A case of tertiary neurosyphilis presenting with moth-eaten bone lesions.

ABSTRACT

Syphilis, the "great imitator," with regard to skin diseases, is a chronic systemic infectious disease with a clinical course that waxes and wanes. The incidence of tertiary syphilis had decreased drastically these decades. We report a case of tertiary neurosyphilis presenting with moth-eaten bone lesions of the lower extremities. To the best of our knowledge, we have not seen such reports.
