Description

Syphilis, stage unspecified, of synovium refers to an infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum that affects the synovial tissue, which is the lining of joints. This condition can lead to inflammation and pain in the affected joints, and it may present without clear staging of the disease.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term may be used in various clinical settings, particularly in rheumatology or infectious disease contexts. Common variants include 'sífilis articular' or 'sífilis de las articulaciones', which are colloquial and should be avoided in formal settings. It is crucial to maintain a professional tone and use the canonical term to ensure clarity.
