GUERRERO-VEGA, Jairo; ARIZA-SERRANO, Lina M e ORTIZ, Paola. Meningovascular neurosyphilis practical approach. Report of a presumptive case. Acta Neurol Colomb. [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.3, pp.233-237. ISSN 0120-8748.
We present a 62 year-old male who had a posterior circulation ischemic stroke probably due to meningovascular neurosyphilis, without HIV coinfection. Neurosyphilis can present in a heterogeneous manner. The diagnosis is made with the serologic confirmation, as well as a CSF study. A prompt diagnosis and treatment can prevent neurologic complications.
