Penile annular and scrotal eczematoid syphilids with penile chancre redux
Abstract
We describe a 17-year-old man who developed penile annular and scrotal eczematoid syphilids with penile chancre redux. Dermoscopy showed linear-irregular and hairpin vessels with white scales in annular lesions. Histopathology displayed psoriasiform hyperplasia with perivascular lymphoplasmacytic dermal infiltrate. Rapid plasma reagin and Treponema pallidumparticle agglutination assays were positive. The lesions disappeared after intramuscular benzathine penicillin.
