Syphilis, the great mimicker, is back
Australian Family Physician, 06/17/09
Bissessor M et al. - In this article the authors review the clinical features and management of syphilis infection, together with measures clinicians can undertake to enhance syphilis control. Syphilis should be considered in men who have sex with men who present with a rash or anogenital lesions. Men who have sex with men should be serologically screened for syphilis on a regular basis, including those who are HIV infected. Management of syphilis infected individuals should include adequate treatment and efforts to maximise the testing and treatment of sexual partners. Early detection and treatment of syphilis will help control the current syphilis epidemic in Australia among men who have sex with men.
