  • Title: [Congenital syphilis: need for adequate antenatal care].
    Author: Friedberg M.
    Journal: Harefuah; 1999 Nov 15; 137(10):457-9, 510. PubMed ID: 10959344.
    Abstract:
    Congenital syphilis is well-known and treatable with penicillin. Diagnosis in the neonate and young child may be difficult and consequently morbidity and mortality can be high. Prevention in children is of utmost importance and can be achieved by proper antenatal care and adequate follow-up of pregnant women. This includes identification of pregnant women at risk for contracting syphilis. The case presented demonstrates this need.
