Syphilis still remains a major health concern worldwide because of the possibility of serious medical and psychological consequences, long-term disability, and death. Neurosyphilis (NS) may occur at any stage of infection. Its clinical presentation has been changing over recent years including- psychiatric and neurocognitive symptoms. Several recent studies have described cases with these symptoms as the principal signs of NS. We present the case of neurosyphilis with a psychiatric presentation characterized by mood disturbance and auditory and visual hallucinations.
由于梅毒可能导致严重的医学和心理后果、长期残疾甚至死亡,它仍然是全球主要的健康问题。神经梅毒(NS)可能在感染的任何阶段发生。近年来,其临床表现一直在变化,包括精神和神经认知症状。最近的几项研究将出现这些症状的病例描述为神经梅毒的主要体征。我们报告一例以情绪障碍、幻听和幻视为特征的精神症状性神经梅毒病例。
