The incidence of syphilis in the UK is rising, particularly in HIV-positive men. We describe a Caucasian, HIV-negative woman who presented with secondary syphilis taking the form known as lues maligna. She also demonstrated the prozone phenomenon whereby the rapid plasmin reagin test was negative, but the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory and Treponema pallidum haemagglutination tests were positive.
