Abstract
Syphilis is a curable sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum. Its clinical manifestations are variable as it has a remarkable aptitude to imitate a spectrum of clinical pictures. This phenomenon has bestowed upon it the epithet "the great imitator" within the medical literature. The escalating global prevalence of syphilis cases underscores the importance of shedding light on its rare manifestations. Syphilitic nephropathy is an uncommon manifestation of secondary syphilis. Here, we report two cases of syphilis-related nephropathy, the first presented as a nephrotic syndrome, and the second as a nephritic syndrome. Both cases had a favorable outcome after treatment of syphilis with benzathine penicillin G.
