Paretic neurosyphilis and cerebral gumma. Case report.

A rare case of neurosyphilis presenting with dementia paralytica and radiological appearance of cerebral gumma is reported. In accordance with previous comparable reports Authors noticed that diagnosis of this disease actually is still based on serological tests and clinical examination. CT, NMR and Cerebral angiography were not able to provide diagnostic findings, although NMR confirmed its ability to detect lesions not discovered by CT scan. Also findings from stereotactic biopsy only revealed an old not active infection.
