Abstract
Although abnormal cerebrospinal fluid findings similar to aseptic meningitis are reported in up to 80% infants with congenital syphilis, overt symptomatic meningeal syphilis is quite a rare presentation, especially at an early age. We report a neonate who presented at 60 hours of life with irritability, poor activity, seizures and bulging fontanel. He was confirmed to have acute syphilitic meningitis.
