Abstract

Objective:To investigate the syphilis infection damages the nervous system caused by the clinical features,enhance the understanding of neurosyphilis.Methods:A total of 5 patients with neurosyphilis were selected.Their clinical features,serological changes,image data were retrospectively analysed Results:5 cases of syphilis serologic test,cerebrospinal fluid syphilis check all positive,5 cases head mri inspection exist specific change(4 cases of coronal visible hippocampal anomalous signals),clinical features lack of specificity.Conclusions:Neurosyphilis occurs in middle-aged men,syphilis,systemic symptoms may be obvious,its various clinical manifestations,misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis,clinical recognition of the clinical characteristics of patients with special emphasis on cerebrospinal fluid and imaging results to identify,for patients with neurosyphilis diagnosis has important practical significance.
