Abstract

We present a 47 year old female white HIV-1 infected patient with multiple painless rupioid skin lesions, a CD4 count of 155 cells/mm3, positive syphilis serology and a histopathology conspicuous for malignant syphilis. She could be successfully treated with Benzathine-Benzylpenicillin (Retarpen®) 2,4 Mega I.E., 3x intramuscularly in weekly intervals.
