Abstract

Congenital syphilis is preventable with proper antenatal follow-up and treatment of the pregnant woman infected with Treponema pallidum, and the rapid evaluation and early treatment of the newborns. Here we report a newborn with early congenital syphilis presenting with maculopapular rash and positive treponemal test born to an inadequately treated syphilitic mother.

Özet

Konjenital sifiliz, Treponema pallidum ile enfekte olan annelerin prenatal dönemde düzenli izlem ve etkin tedavilerinin sağlanması, doğum sonrası bebeklerin hızla değerlendirilip erken tedavi edilmeleriyle önlenebilir. Burada annesi sifiliz tanısıyla yetersiz tedavi almış, makülopapüler döküntülerle başvuran maternal treponemal testi pozitif saptanarak erken konjenital sifiliz tanısıyla başarıyla tedavi edilen yenidoğan hasta sunulmaktadır.
