Syphilitic balanitis of Follmann (FB) is a rarely described manifestation of primary syphilis that was first reported in 1948. Its clinical appearance may be heterogeneous varying from painful edematous balanoposthitis to superficial erosive balanitis and asymptomatic glans induration. We described a patient presenting with FB, as manifestation of primary syphilis, and concurrent anetoderma, as manifestation of secondary syphilis. The association of these lesions was never described to date.
福尔曼梅毒性龟头炎(FB)是一期梅毒一种鲜有描述的表现形式,于1948年首次报道。其临床表现可能多种多样,从疼痛性水肿性阴茎头炎到浅表糜烂性龟头炎以及无症状性龟头硬结。我们描述了一名以FB作为一期梅毒表现形式,同时合并皮肤松弛症作为二期梅毒表现形式的患者。迄今为止,这些病变的关联从未被描述过。
