 AB    Syphilis in HIV-infected patients reveals some particular aspects which
       are clinically relevant and disturbing: it is more frequent and develops
       more quickly to late stages, namely neurosyphilis; this progression may
       happen even if classic therapy in the early stages has been undertaken;
       the diagnosis of neurosyphilis is rather complex, the serological tests
       being of no definite credit; high doses of intravenous penicillin should
       be administered for a long period. We report a case that exemplifies the
       aspects described above.
