Abstract
- Psoriasiform lesion is a rare manifestation in secondary syphilis. A 34-year-old woman patient presented with a month history of condylomata lata on the perineum and erythematous scaling psoriasiform plaque on the back. The preliminary differential diagnosis included psoriasis and lichen simplex chronicus but a psoriasiform syphilid was confirmed through skin biopsies and serologic tests. We report a case of psoriasiform syphilid.
