[A focal infiltration in the upper lobe of the right lung as a manifestation of the initial stage of secondary syphilis].
Among sexually transmitted diseases, the incidence of primary and secondary syphilis has substantially increased in Russian Federation within the recent years. Modern clinicians, acquainted only with conventional dermatovenerologic symptoms of the disease, are less aware of rare manifestations of syphilis as a generalized infection. A rare case of syphilis with infiltrative pulmonary lesion is discussed in the article; the attention of practitioners is drawn to "unusual" manifestations of syphilis.
