A case of gastric syphilis with neurosyphilis presented as epigastric pain.

Gastric syphilis has non-specific symptoms and various endoscopic and radiographic findings. Spirochetes are seen infrequently in biopsy specimens and the pathological findings are often non-specific. So it is very difficult to make a definitive diagnosis of gastric syphilis based on clinical symptoms and biopsy findings. We report the case of a gastric syphilis with neurosyphilis presented with epigastric pain. This case reminds us that gastric syphilis is one possibility in ulcerative gastric lesions.
