[Hepatitis of the secondary syphilis (author's transl)].
A case of syphitic hepatitis is reported. This rare manifestation during the second stage, is characterised by a important cholestasis and a moderated cytolysis. The biologic pattern and the histologic findings allow the difference with viral hepatitis. The manifestation is more frequent in homosexual people. The specific treatment is quickly effective and the short and long-term prognosis is good.
