    Gestational and congenital syphilis: gaps to be elucidated
    (2023) Carvalho, Déborah Esteves; Pimentel, João Victor Andrade; Silva, Luise Oliveira Ribeiro da; Rodrigues, Letícia Maria Cardoso Lima; Andrade, Leonardo Santana; Santana, Carlos Ramon Costa; Menezes, Marcelo Antônio Silva; Silva, Eloyse Emanuelle Nunes; Santos, Gabryelle Eduarda Gama dos; Santos, Sayron Natanael Lopes Pereira; Gomes, Breno Gustavo do Nascimento; Meira, Letícia Almeida; Santos, Helga Machado de Farias; Lopes, Izailza Matos Dantas
    ABSTRACT Congenital and gestational syphilis are increasingly prevalent multisystemic infections in Brazil. This study aimed to present a case series of three children diagnosed with congenital syphilis even though their mother had unreactive treponemal tests. The VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) titers of a 22-year-old mother with three pregnancies decreased after treatment. The mother did not have a reactive treponemal test, but all the three children were diagnosed with early congenital syphilis. This case series highlights the difficulty in diagnosing gestational and congenital syphilis in Brazil.
