Nearly half of all sexually transmitted infections occur in adolescents and young adults. Among them, syphilis infections are on the rise in the United States. Sexually active adolescents, especially those who do not use condoms consistently or are men who have sex with men, are at particular risk for syphilis infection. With the rise in acquired syphilis infections, the incidence of congenital syphilis has also increased. Syphilis can have a variety of presentations based on infectious stage and central nervous system involvement. Careful physical examination and history can elicit the diagnosis. Screening with a nontreponemal test followed by treponemal testing can confirm the diagnosis, and staging is determined clinically. Testing for all sexually transmitted infections should be pursued because coinfections are common. Penicillin is the first-line treatment for syphilis, and duration of therapy depends on the presence of neurologic symptoms; all infants with possible congenital syphilis should receive treatment. Posttreatment monitoring is essential to confirm successful eradication of syphilis. All sexually active, at-risk patients, including pregnant persons, should be screened for syphilis, and those diagnosed as having syphilis should be counseled on disclosure to partners. Although not often found in a pediatric population, with the increasing incidence of syphilis infections in the United States, pediatric providers should have a low threshold for syphilis screening in adolescents and a high index of suspicion for congenital syphilis in infants.
