Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Microbiology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Syphilis, caused by *Treponema pallidum*, is a persistent global health issue.
  • Canada has experienced a dramatic resurgence in syphilis cases since 2018.
  • Rising female cases contribute to increased congenital syphilis rates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an updated overview of *Treponema pallidum*, its transmission, pathogenesis, and clinical features.
  • To review current syphilis epidemiology in Canada, noting recent trends.
  • To discuss contemporary and emerging serological diagnostic techniques for syphilis.

Main Methods:

  • Review of *Treponema pallidum* characteristics and disease progression.
  • Analysis of recent Canadian syphilis epidemiological data.
  • Evaluation of current and novel laboratory diagnostic methods for syphilis.

Main Results:

  • Syphilis incidence in Canada has more than doubled since 2018.
  • Congenital syphilis cases have increased by nearly 600%.
  • Diagnostic guidelines require updating due to advancements in testing.

Conclusions:

  • Updated guidance on syphilis diagnosis and management is urgently needed.
  • Enhanced diagnostic strategies are essential to combat rising syphilis rates.
  • Improved public health outcomes depend on accurate and timely syphilis diagnosis.
