We present the first reported case of papulonodular secondary syphilis in an HIV-positive transgender female. Syphilis is classified into primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary stages, with secondary syphilis having notably diverse cutaneous manifestations. Our patient presented with diverse lesions throughout her body, all pathologically consistent with papulonodular secondary syphilis. Proper identification of the multiple presentations of syphilis is crucial to early diagnosis and treatment. This report seeks to broaden the scope of dermatological manifestations that arise secondary to papulonodular syphilis in HIV-positive patients.
我们报告了首例人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）阳性的跨性别女性患丘疹结节性二期梅毒的病例。梅毒分为一期、二期、潜伏期和三期，二期梅毒有明显多样的皮肤表现。我们的患者全身出现多种损害，所有病理表现均符合丘疹结节性二期梅毒。正确识别梅毒的多种表现形式对于早期诊断和治疗至关重要。本报告旨在扩大HIV阳性患者中丘疹结节性梅毒继发的皮肤表现范围。
