ABSTRACT

The case of a pregnant woman is presented here. She was patient of a family doctor's office at "Flores Betancourt" Polyclinic in Artemisa municipality. This patient did not know her state of healthy carrier of Hemoglobin S, with weak reactive serologic results throughout her pregnancy and even afterwards. No clinical or epidemiological elements would lead to consider syphilis in pregnancy. The best known acute and chronic causes in our environment were studied as false reactive, reaching to new findings, so far not referred in national or international reports, regarding the relationship between the state of healthy carrier of sicklemia and false reagent serology.
