Abstract

33 year old patient admitted to the Hospital Clínicas, to the service of Prof. Dr. Ignacio Martinez.
At the age of 22, he develops an ulceration on the penis, which appears four or five days after intercourse: painful, not accompanied by lymph node infarction, healing uneventfully shortly after, with an antiseptic treatment. At the age of 25, he contracted a second ulceration, whose date of onset after coitus he could not specify, as he was living a marital life at that time. This was accompanied by a lymph node infarction and secondary specific accidents, roseola headache, osteopathic pain, etc., which bothered him for some time (3-4 months) and which healed without specific treatment.
