“…It is a nosological entity well characterized, and it is estimated to occur in about 0.2% of syphilis cases. Although the pathogenic mechanism underlying liver syphilitic disease is unknown, various hypotheses have been proposed to explain it, from the direct inoculation of the etiological agent in the portal venous system (associated with a period of bacteremia that occurs on the secondary phase of the disease) to the hepatocyte injury mediated by immune complexes, which is most often asymptomatic (9,10) . Abdominal pain, hepatomegaly and icterus are clinically observed in hepatitis triggered by syphilis.…”

“…A diagnosis criterion of syphilitic hepatitis should take into consideration the following: elevation of serum marker enzymes activities of liver damage and serological evidence of syphilis, associated with clinical manifestations suggestive of secondary syphilis; exclusion of other causes which may induce to liver damage; rapid recovery of hepatic function after introduction of antibiotic medication. The prognosis of syphilitic hepatitis is generally favourable, although there are rare cases of acute liver failure described in literature (9,13,14) .…”

“…É uma entidade nosológica bem caracterizada, estimando-se que ocorra em cerca de 0,2% dos casos de sífilis. Apesar de o mecanismo patogênico subjacente à doença hepática sifilítica ser desconhecido, várias hipóteses foram propostas para explicá-lo, desde a inoculação direta do agente etiológico no sistema venoso portal (associada a um período de bacteremia que ocorre na fase secundária da doença) à lesão do hepatócito mediada por imunocomplexos, a qual é, na maioria das vezes, assintomática (9,10) . Na hepatite desencadeada pela sífilis clinicamente podem ser observadas dor abdominal, hepatomegalia e icterícia.…”

“…Consideram-se como critérios de diagnóstico de uma hepatite sifilítica os seguintes: elevação das atividades séricas das enzimas marcadoras de lesão hepática e evidência sorológica de sífilis, associados a manifestações clínicas sugestivas de sífilis secundária; exclusão de outras causas passíveis de causar dano hepático; rápi-da recuperação da função hepática após instituição da medicação antibiótica. O prognóstico da hepatite sifilítica é geralmente bom, apesar dos raros casos de falência hepática fulminante que se encontram descritos na literatura (9,13,14) .…”

“…Após um período de incubação médio de 2 a 6 semanas, surge à lesão primária no local da inoculação, O estágio secundário da doença está associado ao aparecimento de lesões cutâneo-mucosas e linfadenopatias generalizadas. (AVELLEIRA, 2006;MARADO, et al, 2013).…”
