TRUJILLO, Daniela et al. Bone involvement in non-congenital syphilis. Biomed. [online]. 2023, vol.43, n.2, pp.157-163.  Epub 30-Jun-2023. ISSN 0120-4157.  https://doi.org/10.7705/biomedica.6603.

We documented two stages of bone involvement due to syphilis in two adult patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus. Bony lesions of secondary versus tertiary syphilis cannot be differentiated on clinical or radiologic grounds alone. Given the rarity of this clinical presentation, there is no consensus on treatment duration and related outcomes.
