Neurosyphilis or not - a case of a differential diagnostic challenge
<p>We report the case of a 42-year-old woman with paraparesis associated with transverse myelitis. For differential diagnostics detailed microbiological, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and neuroimaging examinations were performed. Syphilis was confirmed, but diagnosis of neurosyphilis was only probable based on the CSF microbiological test results. The beneficial treatment response to application of the therapeutic protocol for syphilis supported the supposed diagnosis of syphilis-associated myelitis in our case. In this case report we reviewed the differential diagnostic tools of myelopathies/myelitis.<br>Nowadays regarding to growing prevalence of syphilis worldwide physicians should face on its presence and medical consequences.</p>.
