  • Title: Secondary syphilis presenting as a lichen planus-like rash.
    Author: Tang MB, Yosipovitch G, Tan SH.
    Journal: J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol; 2004 Mar; 18(2):185-7. PubMed ID: 15009300.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of secondary syphilis in a 29-year-old man who presented with a severely pruritic lichen planus-like eruption that mimicked a lichenoid drug eruption histologically. Although uncommon, syphilis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any lichenoid eruption.
