  • Title: Tonsillar Syphilis: an Unusual Site of Infection Detected by Treponema pallidum PCR.
    Author: Smith JR, Tsang RS, Kadkhoda K.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2015 Sep; 53(9):3089-91. PubMed ID: 26179306.
    Abstract:
    With the reemergence of syphilis, it is important that both clinical and public health practitioners recognize the various clinical manifestations of this disease (formerly known as "the great imitator") and become familiar with the newer diagnostic tests. Here we report the first case of tonsillar syphilis diagnosed by PCR.
