Barbosa IG, Vale TC, de Macedo DL, Gomez RS, Teixeira AL. Neurosyphilis presenting as mania. Bipolar Disord 2012: 14: 309-312. © 2012 The Authors. Journal compilation © 2012 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Objective:  General paresis of the insane is a late and severe form of neurosyphilis characterized by nonspecific neuropsychiatric symptoms. There are a limited number of case reports of mood disorders presenting in neurosyphilis, with depressive illness being the most common. Methods:  We performed a literature review of case reports of secondary bipolar disorder induced by syphilitic infection. Results:  Herein reported is a case of a 53-year-old woman who initially presented with symptoms of mania and depression, mimicking bipolar disorder, but was subsequently diagnosed with general paresis of the insane. Conclusion:  The present case report emphasizes that if a substantial delay occurs in syphilis diagnosis and management, the patient may have a very poor prognosis.
