  • Title: [Liver involvement in early secondary syphilis].
    Author: Bukharovich AM, Sokol AN, Knigovskiĭ AM, Khil'ko IN.
    Journal: Vestn Dermatol Venerol; 1989; (9):58-61. PubMed ID: 2609768.
    Abstract:
    Two patients with secondary new syphilis are described, abusing alcohol, developing early syphilitic hepatitis. The manifestations of this condition are similar to those of viral hepatitis. This necessitates a thorough examination of the skin integument, visible mucosae, genitals and perianal area, and of the peripheral lymph nodes in the patients with suspected viral hepatitis, in order to timely detect a possible liver involvement in Treponema infection. When such patients consult a doctor, specific serologic tests should be carried out and case history be carefully recorded.
