[Osseous manifestations of treponematoses : six cases in immigrated black African (author's transl)]. 1981

R Piéron, and Y Mémin, and Y Mafart, and B Lesobre

The authors report the cases of six immigrated Black Africans with clinical and radiological (4 cases with condensing osteitis ; 2 cases with condensing forms and multiple lacunae) bone manifestations ; these manifestations, the serological tests and the osseous biopsy (three cases out of four) are consistent with the diagnosis of bone syphilis. These facts are discussed and ascribed to tertiary syphilis rather than to congenital or secondary syphilis, to yaws or endemic syphilis.
