Pulmonary and pleural involvement in infection is uncommon. Previously reported syphilis-related pleural effusions have been described largely based on clinical features combined with positive syphilis serology rather than the detection of in pleural fluid or pleural biopsy. We report a case of secondary syphilis and confirmed syphilitic pleural effusion via thoracentesis.
肺部和胸膜受累于感染并不常见。先前报道的梅毒相关胸腔积液主要是基于临床特征结合梅毒血清学阳性来描述的,而非通过胸腔积液检测或胸膜活检来确诊。我们报告一例二期梅毒病例,并通过胸腔穿刺术确诊为梅毒感染所致胸腔积液。
