Concomitant syphilitic and HIV infection. A case report.

Evolution of syphilis has been studied in HIV-seropositive patients with regard to progression mode and clinical pictures. Reciprocal interactions between syphilis and HIV have been suggested based on the observation of unusually aggressive forms of treponemic infection, particularly at the CNS level. We describe a case of a 52-year-old homosexual male AIDS presenting with clinically manifest tabe dorsalis. The evolution to neurosyphilis seems, at least in this stage, to be accelerated by superimposed HIV infection.

Treatment of multiple relapsing warts with diphenciprone.

44 patients with multiple recalcitrant warts were treated with weekly applications of diphencyprone. 20 patients were cured completely and 17 improved with reduction in the number or dimension of warts. Plantar warts responded less satisfactorily. Sensitization is not always tolerated by patients and the risk of eczema spreading to other sites must be considered. However, topical immunotherapy has to be considered as an alternative means of treatment in selected patients. The mode of action is discussed.
