摘要
1. The case histories of six patients with neurosyphilitic psychosis whose illnesses ran a rapidly fatal course have been described. 2. The literature has been surveyed for the small number of reported cases of neurosyphilis which have failed to respond to penicillin therapy. 3. It is suggested that combined fever and penicillin therapy may well be effective in arresting the deterioration in these rapidly progressive cases of neurosyphilis. © 1968 S. Karger AG, Basel.
