Late congenital syphilis was diagnosed in a 22-year-old woman on the basis of clinical, serologic and epidemiologic features. Clinical examination showed the "saddle-nose" deformity, Hutchinson's teeth, high-arched palate, Dubois little-finger sign, and small maxillae resulting in shallow depression of the central part of the face. Two years after receiving adequate treatment for late congenital syphilis, she presented with a primary syphilitic chancre; thus it was concluded that the woman had no immunity to reinfection with Treponema pallidum.
根据临床、血清学和流行病学特征，一名22岁女性被诊断为晚期先天性梅毒。临床检查发现有“鞍鼻”畸形、哈钦森牙、高拱腭、杜布瓦氏小指征以及上颌骨小导致面部中央部分出现浅凹陷。在接受晚期先天性梅毒充分治疗两年后，她出现了一期梅毒硬下疳；因此得出结论，该女性对梅毒螺旋体再感染没有免疫力。
