Treatment of latent syphilis. 1976

H W Jaffe

The studies in the English language of the treatment of latent syphillis suffer from a variety of problems. Investigators have failed to define cases adequately and, in some instances, have combined results of several treatment regimens, and have not followed patients for an adequate period of time. It may be wisest to recommend that regimens considered effective for asymptomatic neurosyphilis also be used for latent syphilis.
