ABSTRACT

Congenital syphilis is caused by a spirochete-shaped bacteria called Treponema pallidum; it is transmitted from the infected mother to the fetus. This disease causes different systemic alterations, depending on which stage of syphilis the product is infected. A case of a 24-year-old female patient with 33.1 weeks of gestation is presented.
