Secondary Syphilis

By Ted Rosen, MD | December 20, 2012

Dr Rosen is Professor of Dermatology at Baylor College of Medicine and Chief of the Dermatology Service at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center, both in Houston, Texas.

A 29-year-old man complained about recent severe hair loss. He otherwise felt well.

Key point: This patient demonstrates “patchy” hair loss with preservation of follicular openings. The areas of hair loss are not totally smooth, which would be typical of alopecia areata. He is too old for tinea capitis to be the major consideration. Any adult patient with this presentation should be questioned about sexual exposures, and a serologic test for syphilis should be performed. His RPR was positive in a titer of 1:256. His diagnosis is secondary syphilis.

Treatment: The patient was treated with intramuscular benzathine penicillin (2.4 million units). Complete hair re-growth was evident in about 6 months.

Note: He must be reported to the county health department to facilitate contact tracing.

Is this post just a random post or is there an outbreak of Syphilis in the community? There are an awfull lot of bald and balding men out there, (of which I am one!!! ) so is this suggesting that I may have this disease, a warning to check myself out or a warning that you know someone who is suffering ?

Merry feckin Xmas !!!! BAH HUMBUG !!!!
