Primary syphilis - an atypical presentation
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum. The clinical manifestations of this disease vary widely, according to its stage. Primary syphilis typically presents as a single painless genital ulcer. The authors report a case of an atypical presentation of primary syphilis: multiple vulvar, perianal and between the buttocks ulcerated and very painful papules and plaques, with seropurulent exudate.
