Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term may be used in discussions about sexually transmitted infections and their complications. It is important to maintain a formal register and avoid colloquial terms. Common variants might include 'sífilis renal' or 'sífilis tardía', but these should be avoided in favor of the glossary term for clarity.
