Summary:This review focuses on typical and atypical manifestations of neurosyphilis. The manifestations of neurosyphilis are manyfold and may involve many specialties.

Many screening opportunities for men who have sex with men might catch the majority of cases of syphilis in this group. However, a concern could be if disclosure about heterosexuality or, in general, monosymptomatic neurosyphilis constitute a risk for delayed diagnosis.
