Extract

Although some years have passed since the end of the period under consideration, the subject matter is not altogether inappropriate. Neurosyphilis is now rare, though by no means completely abolished in the Western countries, and it is necessary to bear it in mind, for long-forgotten and undiagnosed cases are still liable to confront busy practitioners or specialists. In many parts of the world the situation is different and neurosyphilis is still frequently seen. Its global incidence may be waning but it is not yet a historical curiosity.
