title: [Does the hepatitis of secondary syphilis exist? Two cases (author's transl)].
abstract: Two patients are presented as new cases of secondary syphilitic hepatitis. The closely resemble descriptions in the literature with the same clinical and laboratory "profile" and the same course spectaculary influenced by anti-syphilitic penicillin therapy. The presence of treponemes in the liver, which would definitely confirm the diagnosis, was not demonstrated. This is a particularly important diagnosis, which should not be missed since it leads to treatment of fundamental importance to the patient's future.
