Kidney disease is among the clinical manifestations of secondary syphilis, as this case report shows.
During serologically confirmed secondary syphilis, a 63-year-old man developed a nephrotic syndrome diagnosed after biopsy as membranous nephropathy.
Membranous nephropathy is an immunological complication of secondary syphilis. Recovery usually follows treatment. It is often associated with signs that may erroneously suggest connective tissue disease.
如本病例报告所示，肾病是二期梅毒的临床表现之一。
在血清学确诊的二期梅毒期间，一名63岁男性出现肾病综合征，活检后诊断为膜性肾病。
膜性肾病是二期梅毒的一种免疫并发症。通常治疗后可康复。它常伴有一些可能错误提示结缔组织病的体征。
