Abstract:
Reported is an unusual lesion on the right palatine tonsil in a man with latent primary syphilis. The lesion was white, nodular, firm, and asymptomatic, and histologically had a keratinized surface; it was not caused by primary syphilis or any other known or described entity. The term keratonodular tonsillitis has been coined to designate this lesion of unknown cause or significance.
