Cover Story: The transmission of syphilis from a mother to her fetus at any point during pregnancy or childbirth results in still births, preterm birth, or congenital syphilis in the newborn. Despite the efficacy of intramuscular penicillin injection treatment for maternal perinatal syphilis, the number of reported congenital syphilis infections continues to increase globally. The rise in congenital syphilis is of great public concern as it can cause pneumonia, “snuffles” or excessive nasal discharge, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, hyperbilirubinemia, cholestasis, maculopapular, and desquamating rash that can involve the palms and soles. This global public health issue highlights discrepancies in the current public health infrastructure related to testing, treating, and managing perinatal syphilis infection during pregnancy.
