    This study presents two cases of syphilitic hepatitis, one acute during secondary syphilis and another chronic with gummatous liver lesions. Early diagnosis of syphilitic hepatitis is crucial for timely treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Syphilology

    Background:

    • Syphilitic hepatitis is a rare manifestation of syphilis.
    • It can present acutely during secondary syphilis or chronically with gummatous liver disease.

    Observation:

    • Case 1: Acute hepatitis with jaundice, inflammatory syndrome, and papular syphilids during secondary syphilis.
    • Case 2: Chronic hepatic lesions with calcifications in a patient with a history of bone syphilis, negative serology, requiring laparotomy for diagnosis.

    Findings:

    • Syphilitic hepatitis can mimic other liver diseases.
    • Diagnosis relies on clinical presentation, serology, and sometimes liver biopsy.
    • Penicillin remains the treatment of choice.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering syphilis in the differential diagnosis of hepatitis.
    • Emphasizes the need for thorough patient history and appropriate diagnostic workup.
    • Underscores the potential for diverse syphilitic manifestations affecting the liver.
