Tonsillar Syphilis: an Unusual Site of Infection Detected by Treponema pallidum PCR.

John R M Smith1, Raymond S W Tsang2, Kamran Kadkhoda3.   

Abstract

With the reemergence of syphilis, it is important that both clinical and public health practitioners recognize the various clinical manifestations of this disease (formerly known as "the great imitator") and become familiar with the newer diagnostic tests. Here we report the first case of tonsillar syphilis diagnosed by PCR.
