Abstract:
We report 7 cases of neurosyphilis observed over a 13-month period in a Parisian University Hospital. Four patients had meningo-encephalitis and 3 had arteritis with meningitis. Serology for the human immuno-deficiency virus was negative in all cases. The problems raised by the interpretation of serological data are discussed and the criteria of progressive neurosyphilis are underlined.
