Since the era of antibiotics, the frequency of secondary syphilis manifestations has declined. During the last decade, there has been a resurgence of syphilis cases. We describe a case of a 28-year-old man with various secondary syphilis symptoms including alopecia with the well-described characteristic "crown of Venus" pattern not commonly seen during this decade, as well as mucosal plaques, pustules, and palmoplantar macular rash. This case suggests that syphilis should be included in the differential diagnosis of hair loss for a correct screening, diagnosis, and early treatment.
自抗生素时代以来，二期梅毒表现的发生率有所下降。在过去十年中，梅毒病例有所回升。我们描述了一例28岁男性患者，其出现了各种二期梅毒症状，包括脱发，呈现出在这十年中不常见的典型“维纳斯冠”模式，以及黏膜斑、脓疱和掌跖部斑疹。该病例表明，在进行正确的筛查、诊断和早期治疗时，梅毒应被纳入脱发的鉴别诊断中。
