地方性(非性病)梅毒在世界上的非工业化地区相对常见。我们描述了在加拿大的本地传播的情况下,并审查可用于确认诊断的工具。需要改进分子工具和全球临床意识,以识别输入到通常不常见地区的地方性梅毒病例。
Endemic (nonvenereal) syphilis is relatively common in nonindustrialized regions of the world. We describe a case of local transmission in Canada and review tools available for confirming a diagnosis. Improved molecular tools and global clinical awareness are needed to recognize cases of endemic syphilis imported to areas where it is not normally seen.
