The incidence of uveitis caused by syphilis has fluctuated during the past century. This paper suggests ways in which the diagnosis of this condition may be helped by reactions to chemotherapy. It also reports on a 22 year old woman presenting with anterior uveitis due to secondary syphilis, who rapidly developed bilateral papilloedema on starting antisyphilitic chemotherapy. She later developed psychiatric symptoms which were partly the result of corticosteroid treatment.
在过去的一个世纪里，由梅毒引起的葡萄膜炎发病率波动不定。本文提出了一些方法，通过化疗反应可能有助于这种疾病的诊断。本文还报告了一名22岁因二期梅毒出现前葡萄膜炎的女性，在开始抗梅毒化疗后迅速出现双侧视乳头水肿。她后来出现精神症状，部分是皮质类固醇治疗的结果。
