Congenital infantile syphilis were clinically studied in twin brothers.
The five months old twin were admitted because of acute bronchopneumonia. During the roentgenologic survey on chest and extremities, there could be detected the presentation of periosteal reaction and osteochondritis on both humeri suggestive of congenital syphilis.
Diagnosis was confirmed by the positive serum VDRL slide flocculation tests in both the twin and parents. Immediate penicllin theraphy was started, but they died probably of complication of pneumonia 2 weeks later.
